Quetzels are found all over the mountainous areas of Panama. They are quite colorful birds. If you are not fortunate enough to see one in person you can find them painted on walls and buildings around town. This photo was taken in Boquete, Panama.
How gorgeous! Did you see a live Quetzel? They must be amazing.
Just fab!
No I don't. I was there.
We spent a good few hours in Costa Rica looking at a tree that was supposed to be frequented by Quetzels - we had more chance of seeing Pretzels in it.
I didn't see any Quetzels in Costa Rica either but a did get to see two types of Trogons and Tom got some awesome photos. We always see our best birds on the golf course - they don't seem to be scared of the buggie. Walk in the same area and you won't see a thing.We spent a good few hours in Costa Rica looking at a tree that was supposed to be frequented by Quetzels - we had more chance of seeing Pretzels in it.
We saw some Trogons too. Rog has some photos somewhere, but not iPhone ones. Yes, they reckon that the best bird hide is a car. Birds don't seem bothered by them or their occupants.

So much I don't know in life! Never ever heard of quetzels or trogons. I feel like I'm on the Starship Enterprise. Any relation to tribbles??
Tribbles are what's produced when Quetzels and Trogons mate.

Thanks y'all! We saw, with the help of binoculars, one quetzal at the very top of a very, very tall tree. Yes, Jilly, I must agree the chances of seeing pretzels in a tree are greater than seeing a quetzal!!
My BIL and SIL who live full time in Panama (very near Costa Rica) do see them a little more frequently. I believe they are similar to trogons.
I couldn't work out who that was in the one that looks a bit like Prince, I'm thinking it might be AC/DC's original lead singer, Bon Scott who died in 1980. The other one is the lead guitarist Angus Young. I really want to get out and check out all the other sites now.
Elijah and I are out and about again.
15. Blender Lane - This lane is claimed as the heart of Melbourne's street art scene. The Lane backs onto a large studio where many of the artists you've seen through my post take residence.
Fantastic Stuff. I did a couple of the graffiti streets while I was there in 2015 but I am sure that there are more since I was there and the graffiti looks a lot more elaborate. I had a look through my pics and nothing was the same not surprisingly. Here are two of my pics from Hosier Lane. My DH is having a chuckle on the left side of the first:
14. (No Name Lane) - As you can see Donald Trump is pretty popular in Australia.
I actually have met the guy who painted the giant Aboriginal portrait, he goes by the name of Adnate. Hosier Lane has a lot of art, I'm sure I missed a few.
13. Finlay Alley - Couldn't get in as construction going on.
How cool is that!
