22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
A closeup of the colorful feathers of the ocellated turkey.

The ocellated turkey is on the edge of being listed as a threatened species. Their numbers are falling in their native Central America region yet where I stayed in Belize, they were frequent visitors on the property.
