Silver-beaked Tanager

Ramphocelus carbo

Silver-beaked Tanager adult males have predominantly dark, velvety maroon plumage, with richer crimson on the throat and breast and blackish wings and tail. The back is dusky reddish brown, and the wings, tail, and breast lack conspicuous barring, spotting, or streaking. A thick bill provides the defining contrast: its enlarged, silvery-white lower mandible stands out against the dark upper mandible and surrounding facial feathers.
