Title: Spangle-cheeked Tanager (Costa Rica)
Post by: Glenn Bartley on April 30, 2013, 12:20:11 pm

This is one of my favourite tanagers in Central America. They can be tricky to get down low but I got lucky the other day in the cloud forest.

Amazing plumage eh??

Amazing plumage. Amazing shot. No luck about it. About as "lucky" as pitching a perfect game.
