Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

Large, colorful tanager found only in the Santa Marta Mountains of Colombia. Note the black mask, yellow dot behind eye, and azure crown; plumage is otherwise blue and yellow. Usually seen in the canopy of cloud forest, often in pairs, and regularly joins mixed species flocks. It is rather quiet for a mountain-tanager, and typically just gives soft chip notes. Quite common in the upper parts of El Dorado Nature Reserve.
