I knew 8 of the 10 and I should have know the bonus one, but couldn't think of it off the top of my head.
That was fun.
Do another one...quickly! HA!
Fun quiz, I think I got 7 but not the bonus. Your header is so beautiful--spring is wonderful.

That was entertaining! I was a bit unsure of the first one--made a good guess, then the other answers came quickly to mind. The bonus question with the exotic bird was the real puzzler. A good word for Scrabble players to remember.
Good quiz, you got me with the last one, all I could think of was the Aztec god, Quetzaalcoaitl. I think the names must be derivative, because Quetzaalcoaitl was known as a feathered serpant.
It was fun to do this quiz and I knew seven of them.
I invite yoy to do my quiz! We seem often to have the same idea!
Wil, ABCW Team

I missed the first one! But got the rest.
ROG, ABCW

Wow, thanks for listing the answers, or I would have been on the computer all day to find quetzal! This was fun. We had a quince bush at my childhood home, and it had the prettiest blossoms. Thanks so much for this! Amy
This is the Quintessential, Quick Quiz...Quite Quaint!
Well done, Chris,
my church has a quiz night, I am not joining, because my general knowledge is very poor.
Yes, It is fun to have a quiz and get those mental juices going.
I knew most of them which surprised me!! Good quiz.
Wonderful quiz, Chris, and great fun. I missed numbers 8 (should have had it), 10 and the bonus. I have a "Q" post waiting in drafts. Way too late now, but may publish it without linking up. I am thinking of your health. Drop me a note, if you can, before you go into the hospital. I will be thinking of you for sure!
