The day I saw a quetzal...

by Patrick on Tue 03 Jul 2007 01:07 AM BST | Permanent Link | Cosmos

The best question you can ask a Guatemalan is: "have you ever seen a quetzal?".

I've personally heard the most incredible and fascinating stories of 'the day I saw a quetzal...'. This is truely a bird of mystery- something outsiders don't really get. Unfortunately I'm still waiting to set eyes on this incredible and rare bird myself- otherwise that would be a great intro to my own story.

I love how the video takes place in front of a dead quetzal, lol.

Adds to the mystery don't you think... echos of a certain Monty Python sketch...
