Qute Quetzal!



The only 'Q'-named animal featured in BBC nature webbie. Q-names are very rare u know. And those who are Q-named are rarely nasty but often nicey. :)

In fact, some similarities:

Status: "They are solitary birds, about the same size as a pigeon, and eat fruit, insects, frogs, lizards and snails."

Ahem: "... bright or dazzling... "

Well-done: "The males also perform courtship dances and sing serenades, and their mating call sounds a bit like 'very-good very-good'." haha.

A good husband should...: "The male takes turns at incubating the eggs, (optional>>) curling his long tail feathers over his head so they stick out of the nest hole. "

Special!: "The Mayans and Aztecs used the long feathers in their ceremonies, and only nobles and priests were allowed to wear them."
