Flame-colored Tanager

Flame-colored Tanager adult males have predominantly orange-red plumage, with a bright head and underparts contrasting against darker wings and tail. Black streaks mark the back, while the wings carry two whitish bars and pale feather edges; white tips accent the dark outer tail feathers. A dusky cheek patch behind and below the eye forms a distinctive facial marking against the orange-red head.
