Spangle-cheeked Tanager (Costa Rica)

[Glenn Bartley]

This is one of my favourite tanagers in Central America. They can be tricky to get down low but I got lucky the other day in the cloud forest.

Amazing plumage eh??

I like the pose, details, sharpness, HA and composition. I have only seen them high up at the finca and moving quickly in flocks. Great image Glenn.
