Summary: Resplendent quetzals awe Audubon Birds and Nature Calendar July 2026 in National Audubon Society's Audubon Protecting Birds and Nature calendar series.
"God talks to human beings through many vectors: through each other, through organized religion, through the great books of those religions, through wise people, through art and music and literature and poetry, but nowhere with such detail and grace and color and joy as through creation. When we destroy a species, when we destroy a special place, we're diminishing our capacity to sense the divine, understand who God is and what our own potential is." Robert Francis Kennedy Jr., April 19, 2023, Boston Park Plaza Hotel, Back Bay, Boston, Massachusetts.
“And there’s many people out there who want us to move to the next planet already and I’m like, hang on, let’s not give up on this planet yet," William, Prince of Wales, July 31, 2023, Sorted Food food truck, London, England, United Kingdom.

| British natural history artist and illustrator Elizabeth Coxen Gould (July 18, 1804-Jug. 15, 1841) created 36 lithographic plates of quetzals for A Monograph of the Trogonidae, or Family of Trogons, which was authored and published by her husband, English ornithologist John Gould (Sep. 14, 1804-Feb. 3, 1881). The plates are credited as "Drawn from Nature & on Stone by J & E. Gould." Her signature appeared as "J & E Gould" at an end of the branch in each of her 36 lithographic plates, as noted in "Gallery: Who Really Painted These Resplendent Quetzals?" by Cornell Lab of Ornithology graphic designer and scientific illustrator Jillian Ditner, from the Spring 2023 issue of Living Bird magazine and published April 5, 2023, on Cornell Labs/All About Birds website (https://www.allaboutbirds.org/news/gallery-who-really-painted-these-resplendent-quetzals/).

Resplendent quetzals awe Audubon Birds and Nature Calendar July 2026 in National Audubon Society's Audubon Protecting Birds and Nature calendar serie even as 11 protected areas avoid iron-ample water and trophy-parts hunterss.
Genus-specieding Pharomachrus ("cloth-/mantle-long," Greek φᾶρος μᾰκρός) mocinno bases resplendent quetzals in the Trogoniformes ("fruit-eating-configured," Greek τρώγων, Latin -fōrmēs) order's Trogonidae ("fruit-eating-appearing," Greek τρώγων, Latin -idæ) family. Pablo de la Llave's (Thu., Feb. 11, 1773-Sun., Jun 16, 1833) mocinno subspecies commemorates José Mariano Mociño Suárez Lozano (Sat., Sep. 24, 1757-Wed., Jan. 12, 1820). Resplendent quetzals ("stand," Nahuatl quetza) dwell as mocinno versus costaricensis subspecies in southern Mexico, northern El Salvador, northwestern Nicaragua, Guatemala, Honduras versus Costa Rica, western Panama.
Resplendent-quetzal habitats entail canopy and subcanopy trees, ravines and cliffs that embellish moist rainforests at 3,000- to 10,500-foot (900- to 5,200-meter) altitudes in montane-cloud forest habitats.
Resplendent quetzals function as altitudinal migrants between their breeding habitats in lower-montane rainforests and their non-breeding habitats in the premontane rain-forests of Pacific, then Atlantic slopes.

Resplendent quetzals function as altitudinal migrants between their breeding habitats in lower-montane rainforests and their non-breeding habitats in the premontane rain-forests of Pacific, then Atlantic slopes.
Perhaps 11 protected areas guard near-threatened populations of resplendent quetzals even as habitat gone to deforestation, forest fragmentation and agricultural clearings gut all their biogeographical groupings. Golden eagles, hawk and owl species, ornate hawk-eagles versus brown jays, emerald toucanets, kinkajou and squirrel species, long-tailed weasels harm resplendent-quetzal adults versus resplendent-quetzal eggs, nestlings. Mature-physical, mature-sexual breeding-season intervals involve March through August even as Mexico-, Guatemala-, El Salvador-inhabiting resplendent quetzals invoke March through April, March through May, May through June.
July 2026 on Audubon Birds and Nature Calendar joins resplendent quetzals joint-incubating eggs whose 17- to 19-day hatchlings jubilate co-parental avocado-, berry-, froglet-, insect-, lizard-, snail-journeying.
Two-hundred-plus-foot- (60-plus-meter-) high nests kindle 41-foot- (10-meter-) high nest stubs and 31-foot (9-meter) nest holes that resplendent quetzals keepsake as home nests for all subsequent-year broods.

Resplendent-quetzal mothers-to-be lay one to three blue-white, 1.53- by 1.28-inch (38.9- by 32.4-millimeter) eggs even as nest failures log 67- to 78-percent failure rates each season. They muster flying one-month-olds from abandoned-woodpecker, decayed-stump, decaying-tree hollow nests even as mature-, maturing-meant meals manifest ant, frog, larvae, lizard, wasp, 41 to 43 fruit-tree species-munching. Such fruits as Lauraceae ("laurel-resembling," Latin laurus -āceae) family, Symplococarpa purusii and wild avocadoes nourish even as they necessitate regurgitating swallowed-whole pits, for 32 tree-species new-niching.
Perhaps illegal food-, trophy parts-trapping traders obtain feathers overlaid on eggs and nestlings occurring from resplendent quetzals second-clutching July 2026 on Audubon Birds and Nature calendar.
Resplendent quetzals, prompting with their prolongedly Central-American cultural propitiousness the Guatemalan coat-of-arms, monetary-unit nomenclature and national animal, present gender- and nominate and Costa-Rican subspecies-particular physical profiles.

Resplendent quetzals, prompting with their prolongedly Central-American cultural propitiousness the Guatemalan coat-of-arms, monetary-unit nomenclature and national animal, present gender- and nominate and Costa-Rican subspecies-particular physical profiles.
Mature males queue big-eyed, helmet-crested heads; part-feathered, part-filamented bills; iridescently blue-violet, green-gold bodies; green upper-tail-coverted melanin-browned plumage; white under-tails; black-primary, inner-, fringe-coverted wings; red lower-breasts, bellies. Narrower-feathered, shorter-billed, shorter-winged Costa-Rican subspecies realize 13- (32-) by 25-inch (86-centimeter) tail plumes even as both-subspecies females reveal bronze-green heads; gray bellies, bills, lower-breasts; shorter tails. Physical and sexual maturity secures resplendent quetzals 14- to 16-inch (36- to 40-centimeter) body, 12- to 39.6-inch (31- to 100.5-centimeter) tail-streamer lengths and 7.4-ounce (210-gram) weights.
Resplendent quetzals territorialize male, two-noted "Gee!-Gee!" even as Audubon Birds and Nature Calendar transmits July 2026 buzzing; chattering; mated "Couee!-Keow!-Kowee!-Keow!-K;loo!-Keelo!"; whistled "Uwac!" and "Wahc!-Ah!-Waac!" and Wec!-Wec!"

| Córdoba, Veracruz, southeastern Mexico-born botanist, Catholic priest and naturalist Pablo de la Llave (Feb. 11, 1773-June 16, 1833) taxonomized the quetzal resplandeciente (resplendent quetzal), a small, Central American and Mexican tropical forest-dwelling bird in the Trogonidae family, as Pharomachrus Mocinno in his description (pages 48-49), dated Nov. 10, 1831, in "Memoria Sobre el Quetzaltototl, Género Nuevo de Aves," published in the Ornitologia section of Registro Trimestre, ó, Colección de Memorias de Historia, Literatura, Ciencias y Artes, Tomo 1, Num. 1 (México enero de 1832), pages 43-49 (http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/14631488). Pablo de la Llave selected the species name, Mocinno, in honor of Mexican botanist, naturalist and physician José Mariano Mociño (Sep. 24, 1757-June 12, 1820). Mar del Plata, Argentina-based, Pasto, Colombia-born illustrator, graphic designer, artist, and Jungian art therapist Carolina Zambrano illustrated, with graphite pencil and digital color, José Mariano Mociño: Un Gran Científico Mexicano Desconocido [A Great Unknown Mexican Scientist], authored by Mexico City, Mexico-based, Chicago, Illinois-born writer Tom (Thomas) Janota, who taught science for 25 years at The American School of Mexico City, and published by 1948-founded, Mexico City, Mexico-based children's and young adult literature publisher CIDCLI (Centro de Información y Desarrollo de la Comunicación y de la Literatura Infantil; Center for Information and Development of Communication and Children’s Literature) in 2020. In 2021, the book won two prestigious Mexican literary honors: Premio Antonio García Cubas (Antonio García Cubas Award), which was established in 1998 by the Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia (INAH; National Institute of Anthropology and History), and Premios CANIEM al Arte Editorial, established in 1980 by la Cámara Nacional de la Industria Editorial Mexicana (CANIEM; National Chamber of the Mexican Publishing Industry). A resplendent quetzal (Pharomachrus mocinno) rests on the right shoulder of José Mariano Mociño on the book's cover (upper left).: Magia Real / Carolina Zambrano, via Facebook Oct. 13, 2021 |

Córdoba, Veracruz, southeastern Mexico-born botanist, Catholic priest and naturalist Pablo de la Llave (Feb. 11, 1773-June 16, 1833) taxonomized the quetzal resplandeciente (resplendent quetzal), a small, Central American and Mexican tropical forest-dwelling bird in the Trogonidae family, as Pharomachrus Mocinno in his description (pages 48-49), dated Nov. 10, 1831, in "Memoria Sobre el Quetzaltototl, Género Nuevo de Aves," published in the Ornitologia section of Registro Trimestre, ó, Colección de Memorias de Historia, Literatura, Ciencias y Artes, Tomo 1, Num. 1 (México enero de 1832), pages 43-49 (http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/14631488). Pablo de la Llave selected the species name, Mocinno, in honor of Mexican botanist, naturalist and physician José Mariano Mociño (Sep. 24, 1757-June 12, 1820).
