Meant to post this yesterday but I'm afraid I accidentally saved over it, so it was kittens and puppies and cute birds instead- which I know is not exactly a bad thing, but still! I'm sorry about that. In any case, here's the post, or as much as I remember of it. Today's feature are quetzals, birds that live in tropical America. Their name basically refers to the long, very impressive tail feathers that the male birds spot, and if it sounds familiar to you, then you're probably thinking of Quetzalcoatl, the feathered serpent. As odd as it may seem, these birds are actually surprisingly difficult to spot in their normal habitat despite- or perhaps because- of the iridescent green feathers they have. While in any other setting they would stand out, in the jungle, such displays blend in very well.
