23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Wildlife
Colors of the Ocellated Turkey
It looks as a painting using a lot of colors, But actually its just a close up of the Ocellated Turkey (Meleagris ocellata) feathers. This is an endemic species that is only found in the Yucatán Peninunsula and the Northern part of Guatemala, and Belize. Usually they are in group in the middle of the jungle depending if its mating season or sometimes they are by themselves walking.
