FischerRA Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Is it possible this is a female Summer Tanager. Captured 1-25-2020 in Central Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bird Nuts Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Looks better for a young male Painted Bunting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FischerRA Posted February 4, 2020 Author Share Posted February 4, 2020 Thank you. The colors had me confused. I recognize the green on the back but, the orange and yellow on the breast and no blue on the head did not look right for a Painted. I have females that are solid green now and several full color males. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Leukering Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Summer Tanagers are considerably larger than are Painted Buntings; I agree with imm male Painted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
