What a gorgeous quetzal! The resplendent quetzal (Central and South America) was the sacred bird of the ancient Mayas and Aztecs. Today the resplendent quetzal is the national emblem of Guatemala (whose monetary unit is the quetzal). The resplendent quetzalβs long blue-green plumes cover its tail, which shows white beneath, in flight. Thank you for sharing this lovely bird and for joining the Beautiful Bird Challenge.
