Pileated Finch - 30Jul2019

Per Wiki: The grey pileated finch (Coryphospingus pileatus), also known as the pileated finch, is a species of bird in the family Thraupidae, where it has recently been moved to from the Emberizidae. It is found in BrazilColombiaFrench Guiana, and Venezuela in subtropical or tropical dry forests, subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical dry shrubland, and heavily degraded former forest.

We found these in La Guajira, the dry forest in Riohacha, Colombia. The first pic is from a local's property that had some feeders set up to attract birds and consequently tourists.
