This month, NSA’s newest club – the Birdwatching Club – took it upon themselves to organize a weekend trip into the cloud forests of Costa Rica. 

The trip coincided with the nesting season of one of Central America’s most stunning and most elusive avian species: the Resplendent Quetzal. 


Students and staff departed for the forested mountains on Friday, with the plan to rise early the next morning for the best quetzal spotting opportunity. 

After a sunrise yoga session led by one of our Case Managers, Andrea, the group began scanning the lush foliage for their prize.

​They identified dozens of different species and, in the end, their efforts paid off with a male quetzal displaying its iridescent plumage to the group for over 20 minutes. Nice work, birders!
