Scarlet-bellied Mountain Tanager (Anisognathus igniventris) - 07Aug2024

Tanagers are eye-popping in general, but this large one that inhabits montane forests in the Andes from Venezuela down to Bolivia,  takes it to another level.  Unfortunately on my good shots below, he has his blue rump covered with his wings so I included a less crisp shot showing that feature.  They are apparently common at the right elevations.  All my photos from my second trip to Colombia.
