The main aim of a cloud forest trip is to try to spot a Quetzal. The Quetzal is the national bird of Guatemala, where the currency is also called the quetzal and there are various myths and legends where the bird has a starring role.
It´s a very pretty green bird with yellow and red belly. The males have really long tails and really elaborate feathers, the females are smarter and tell better jokes....
We saw 2 females, but this is the best photo I could get I´m afraid. When they fly they´re really lovely....but also quite fast.
