What a great picture you've taken of this tanager Stanley.

They're such beautiful birds, aren't they. Many thanks for showing him to us my friend.

A cracking detailed shot, pose and setting Stanley, lovely job and many tfs and a fine set today.

That black and red coloration is striking (unless you happen to be colorblind), but what's really grabbing my attention is the size of his bill compared to other tanagers I've seen :eek!:
