Why it matters
The Eared Quetzal is a rare and elusive member of the trogon family, primarily inhabiting the high-elevation pine-oak forests of Mexico’s Sierra Madre Occidental. Ornithologists and bird enthusiasts prize this species for its deep-green plumage and distinctive long, broad-winged profile, which makes it one of the most sought-after sightings for those studying avian diversity in isolated mountain habitats.
