Palm Tanager

Thraupis palmarum

The Palm Tanager adult male has predominantly gray and olive-green plumage, with a subdued, largely uniform appearance and darker wings and tail. Blackish flight feathers and tail feathers have greenish edging, while the breast and back remain essentially plain, without conspicuous spotting or streaking. A yellowish olive crown provides a subtle defining contrast with the grayer feathering of the face and throat.
