While the palm tanager is not the most spectacular bird, in the right light, it's a real beauty! I love the silvery feathers. Taken in Costa Rica last month on a rare sunny morning at Arenal.

It is a beautiful bird Doug !!! I like being able to see his back and the head turn is very good Showing the best part of the bird !!! The distinct green shapes on the bg are somewhat distracting !!! Excellent image !!!
