Bird revered by the Mayans (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

quetzal

(Other definitions for quetzal that I've seen before include "Tropical bird with iridescent green plumage" , "Vivid long-tailed bird of the Americas" , "Bird sacred to Mayas; Guatemalan currency" , "Bright bird" , "Central American bird" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
