A small bird with bright green, yellow, and blue patterned feathers perches on a branch against a soft, blurred green background.
I really love the Speckled Tanagers in the south of #CostaRica. Such exquisite coloration.

🌎 Western Tanager (Piranga ludoviciana) The male Western Tanager (Pictured) has a striking red-orange head, bright yellow body, and black wings, back, and tail. Females are yellow-green and blackish. They breed in open coniferous and mixed woods across western North America, from Alaska down to Mexico, where they also winter. A long-distance migrant, it forages for insects and fruit, often high in the canopy. Its song is described as a hoarse, burry robin-like sound. No subspecies are recognised. Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) Fun fact: Unlike most red birds, the male's scarlet head is not colored by typical plant pigments (carotenoids) but by a rare pigment called rhodoxanthin. They likely acquire this unique pigment indirectly by eating insects that have fed on conifer needles or buds. 📷: Photo by Veronika_Andrews via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/western-tanagers-bird-wild-bird-7315833/ HUAV

Fall #bird migration over. So, sharing shots of last western #tanagers. Think there's 1 or 2 that hang in garden @ #fortmason #sanfrancisco all year, locals now. The rest, I guess I'll see next year when they return. Hmm, wonder which new #birds I'll see this winter...? #birding #nature #wildlife
