A gorgeous western tanager
I had an appointment this morning so I had to cut my birding short. Upon returning to my car and while taking the lens/camera off of the tripod, I saw a flash of bright yellow and red out of the corner of my eye. I stopped and tried to follow whatever bird this was as it was absolutely beautiful. I took roughly 20 shots as it hopped around on the tree that was right above my car! In a few pics the western tanager appears to be eating a caterpillar. The bird clearly has something green in it's mouth.
