Bay-headed Tanager

The Bay-headed Tanager adult male has predominantly green upperparts and blue to turquoise underparts, although the underparts are green in some geographic forms. Its back and breast are largely unpatterned, while darker wing and tail feathers have green edging, giving the folded wings a layered appearance. A chestnut head, bordered behind by a narrow golden-yellow hindneck collar, provides the clearest contrast with the green back.
