Sacred to ancient Mesoamerican people, gorgeously plumed quetzals live in the mountains of Central America.
During mating season, male quetzals grow twin tail feathers that form an amazing train up to three feet (one meter) long. Females do not have long trains, but they do share the brilliant blue, green, and red coloring of their mates. Male colors tend to be more vibrant.
