Resplendent Quetzal - Pharomachrus mocinno

Resplendent Quetzal is a bird in the Trogon family, relatively rare, and is well known for

its magnificent colorful plumage.

Resplendent Quetzal is the National bird of Guatemala. I needed about 250 Camera clicks in the shady

rain-forest to get a few good pictures of the

bird.
