Adventures in bird photography

The fails, I mean.

This is the bird I most hoped to see in Monteverde: the resplendent quetzal. And I did see four of them on the birding hike, three males and a female. The males were immature, so none of them had grown the famous tail feathers yet, and this female was the only one I managed to get a clear shot of.

...of her back. Still, I saw quetzals!
