The Birds of Guatemala

Guatemala's tropical latitude and varied geography makes the country an idea destination for bird watchers. A wide variety of bird species are found here, not the least of which is the Resplendent Quetzal (Pharomachrus mocinno) called "the most spectacular bird in the New World" (Peterson and Chalif, 1973).
