Resplendent Quetzal

Pharomachrus mocinno

A Costa Rican Specialty

The Resplendent Quetzal is a highland specialty that's on every birder's wishlist for their Costa Rican visits. These birds are increasing in numbers with the important restoration work that's being done in their native habitats.

We have a few options for viewing this spectacular bird in the Talamanca mountains or at Monteverde.

If want to see Quetzals, I can make sure you have a great experience!
