Thraupis palmarum (Palm Tanager / Tángara palmera)

La Ceja, Colombia; 2.300 meters above sea level.

 

The Palm Tanager is one of the most widespread and familiar birds of the neotropics, from Nicaragua south to southern Brazil. They are common at forest borders, but also occur in the canopy of the interior of forest. As the name suggests, Palm Tanagers often are associated with palm trees, but by no means are they restricted to living in palms.
