Female white-lined tanager (Trachyphonus rufus), Arima Valley, Trinidad
Resident breeder from Costa Rica to Argentina. The "white lines" refer to markings on the undersides of the wings of the male, used in display. I dislike using flash when photographing birds, but here, in the depths of a bush, it was unavoidable.
