I heard the bird and looked up and found it.

A female Western Tanager

The dull sky and distance did not make for great photos.

Nonetheless I was so pleased to see this bird.

If I'm lucky I'll have more sightings through mid-September.

I call female Western Tanagers "Banana Birds" as they are a bright yellow.

Thanks for stopping by!

Another pretty Curtis B. piece! Glad the Western Tanager stopped by for a visit.

It's rare that I get them at the farm, but we have plenty up in the mountains at our tree farm. I call the males safety birds - bright yellow with orange hard hats.
