Resplendent quetzal male

Description:

In the previous spotting I wanted to show the full body of the male quetzal including the tail. Here I just want to share a couple cute close ups, his full body seen from behind and his tail sticking out from the nest.

Habitat:

Forested area next to grassland. Paraiso Quetzal.
