Spotted Wood Quail (Costa Rica)

[Glenn Bartley]

I was pretty stoked to get an opportunity to photograph this species in the highland of Costa Rica recently. I had only ever photographed one other Wood Quail in Ecuador so this was a real treat. I even shot some videos (see link below).


All the best!

They're such a beautiful animal. How long did you have to wait before you saw/hear one? They're so small, I imagine it was pretty difficult to see them!

Well done Glenn.

Tremendous. How can you reach such quality? It's not only camera, right?

Such a cutie!
