Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

Well after searching for hours in Florida over the years - this unmistakable species made a very brief appearance at the Panama Canal. It never came closer.

This bird was wary, though most of the other tanagers we saw were not so shy. Gamboa, Panama.
