Long-distance migrant. Twice a year, Scarlet Tanagers fly across the Gulf of Mexico between their breeding grounds in eastern North America and their wintering grounds in South America. They usually migrate at night. Individuals that spend the winter farther south migrate to breeding grounds later, and in more synchronized bursts, than individuals wintering further north. (Cornell Lab)

This image was taken last Saturday morning April 20 after a huge storm came through on the Friday evening. I went to Fort De Soto Park in St Petersburg hoping for migrants, I was not disappointed, birds were everywhere in the sea grape trees feeding on the insects that were there. This will be the last image I post for awhile as we are traveling back home this week-end.

Male Scarlet Tanagers are among the most blindingly gorgeous birds in a forest in summer, with blood-red bodies set off by jet-black wings and tail. They’re also one of the most frustratingly hard to find as they stay high in the forest canopy singing rich, burry songs.
Summertime, Summertime!! Well, not quite, but it kind of feels like it.
I got out of bed this morning, opened the bedroom window blinds and immediately spotted this gentleman, a first for our property.

The Scarlet Tanager singing in the bushes played very shy. It came out briefly to feed and show off that flashy plummage.

Thank you for visiting. I appreciate the faves and kind comments very much.
I photographed this scarlet tanager in the morning hours as the sun was hitting the outer edge of an embankment but was not shining through all the snags and brush, which is how the bird caught this wonderful light while the background remained dark.
