88 Crested Quetzal (Pharomachrus antisianus) Crested Quetzal (Pharomachrus antisianus) ©© Male. Cosanga, eastern Andes, Ecuador. Not a great photo (the sun was almost diirectly behind the bird) but we only saw a couple of these and thus precious few times to get a decent photo. A beautiful, but scarce, bird.
