    This is another image from my Costa Rica set ups. This perch was intended for the Aracari but when the Tanager landed on it I took it. I wish for a better HA but still like the image. All C&Cs are welcome and appreciated.

    Beautiful photo Jim. Great set-up here, perch and background are nice. The bird is awesome, I've never seen a photo of this species before.

    Cool bird on a great setup. Excellent comp too. You setups really are very productive, Jim! If I may ask, how do you attract them?
    Costa Rica is on my list .... someday.

    Thanks for your comments Sidharth. I used bananas for all the birds that I posted recently from Costa Rica. You must go there it is a birders paradise.
