Chalcothraupis ruficervix ruficervix -Prévost & Des Murs, 1842- (Golden-naped tanager / Tangara nuquirrufa)
The golden-naped tanager is found in South America from Colombia to Bolivia. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests and heavily degraded former forest. Six subspecies are recognised.
Golden-naped tanagers have plumage similar to those of the metallic-green tanager, the swallow tanager and the blue-and-black tanager as adults of all three species are primarily blue with black facial masking, however, the golden-naped tanager is the only primarily blue tanager with a golden or reddish crown patch or nape.
Elderly cats need their naps...

I photographed this Golden-naped Tanager (Chalcothraupis ruficervix) at Finca La Florida, at Kilometer 18 near Cali, Valle del Cauca, Colombia, at about 2,000 meters, in February 2021. Its species name combines the Latin words for red and nape. It was long placed in Tangara, but a 2014 study moved it to the revived genus Chalcothraupis, whose name joins the Greek word for bronze with an old name for a small bird. It lives in moist montane forest and degraded former forest from Colombia to Bolivia, and its type locality is Bogotá. IUCN lists it as Least Concern.
I made this frame with a Canon R5 and the RF 100-500mm f/4.5-7.1L, at 1/1000 sec, f/6.7, ISO 1600, −0.5 EV. The San Antonio cloud forest at Kilometer 18 is recognized as an Important Bird Area and a Key Biodiversity Area, with the Multicolored Tanager as its symbol species.

This week's theme was an easy one for me since you can find me on the floor most of the time :) chose this one and hope it makes you smile - it is our cat napping in the sunshine, guarded by our little deer made of stone. Happy SoS! Have a good weekend and stay safe
Curling up in a favorite spot Jellybean the fairy quiets her bells, closes her eyes, and nestles into a warm leaf bed...
We moved into a house with a spare bedroom, and Moose likes the way the sun comes in it in the evening for naps :)

I just had to share this with you. I shot this thru my bedroom window. Dickens, my blind goose, found her way to Otto's bed I keep outside on the porch and settled in for a little nap. I just thought it was so cute.
If you can see this on a large screen, you can see her eye and the blue where it should be a brown iris and black pupil. I think she has a bit of sight, but not good at all. She walks into posts all the time and she will walk right over food and water bowls all the time. But she still manages to get around and seems very content in my back yard. Of course I have a pen that she and Goldie my duck go into for safety at night.
I do frequently have to hose duck and goose poop off the cement but it's a small price to pay
This Western Grebe chick is catching a few ZZZs on Mom/Dad's back. The cool green water of Santa Margarita Lake sets them off perfectly.
The boys sometimes have their evening nap together. They might stay there all night...

The swans at Leeds Castle are so used to people that they are comfortable enough to nap even when you’re poking a camera at them lol. I wanted to get a backlit shot of a swan with the water behind to make the beautiful bokeh but I never expected a sleepy cutie to behave so well!!
Thanks for viewing and HSoS 😀

212) Black-Naped Monarch
Black-Naped Monarch, Hypothymis azurea, Kelicap Ranting
The black-naped monarch breeds across tropical southern Asia from India and Sri Lanka east to Indonesia and the Philippines. This species is usually found in thick forests and other well-wooded habitats. The black-naped monarch has short legs and sits very upright whilst perched prominently, like a shrike. It is insectivorous, often hunting by flycatching. When alarmed or alert, the nape feathers are raised into a pointed crest.They will join mixed-species foraging flocks and are active in the understory of the canopy. The breeding season is March to August and the nest is neat cup placed in a fork. The nest is built by the female while the male guards. The typical clutch is of three eggs with both parents incubate and feed the young which hatch after about 12 days.
Kelicap Ranting adalah burung kecil berwarna biru yang bergerak pantas di kanopi pertengahan dan atas hutan memburu serangga-serangga kecil. Ia agak sukar dirakam gambarnya kerana saiz, tabiat dan kepantasannya bergerak. Namun sewaktu musim bersarang, ia akan sering berulang alik ke sarang, memberi peluang untuk gambarnya dirakam.

A chauffeur enjoying the sun and taking a nap in style! The car is a Dodge Brothers, I think it must be from the 1920s or 30s.

Nothing like napping upside down!
This one chose the under-side of a leaf of the Jade plant.
I photographed this Pale-naped Brushfinch (Atlapetes pallidinucha) at Pueblito Antiguo in CuÃtiva, by Lago de Tota, Boyacá, Colombia, at about 3,040 meters. Its yellow underparts show well here, and the species is named for its pale nape. It is a year-round resident wherever it occurs. Its population size is not known, but it is believed to be stable across a large range, and it often travels with mixed-species flocks. IUCN lists it as Least Concern.
I used a Canon R5 with the RF 100-500mm f/4.5-7.1L for this one, at 1/500 sec, f/6.7, ISO 6400. CuÃtiva sits on the Altiplano Cundiboyacense between Sogamoso, Aquitania and Tota, and its lands run from about 2,700 to 3,200 meters beside Lago de Tota, Colombia's largest lake.

The Blue-naped Chlorophonia has an extensive but disjunct circum-Amazon range, in the Atlantic Forest of southeast Brazil, eastern Paraguay, and northeast Argentina, the Andes from Bolivia to Venezuela, and the northern coastal mountains of Venezuela, as well as the Pantepui region of southern Venezuela, northernmost Brazil, and adjacent Guyana. The male has the head, throat and breast bright green, the collar, central back and rump bright blue, a bright yellow breast and belly, and the wings and tail are green, while the female is overall duller, being mainly green above with blue on the ocular area and collar, and the throat to breast is green, becoming dull greenish yellow over the rest of the underparts. There is some degree of subspecific variation, at least in males. doi.org/10.2173/bow.blnchl1.01
