      You're welcome! I will be beginning 5 weeks of field work in Nicaragua in a few days, so there will be many more pictures to come, especially orchids and bromeliads. Posted 9 years ago

The Crimson-collared tanager

The crimson-collared tanager is a rather small Middle American songbird. It was first described by the French naturalist René-Primevère Lesson in 1831, its specific epithet from the Latin adjective "sanguinolentus", "bloodied", referring to its red plumage.
