Nice example of a male Passerini's Tanager photographed in Costa Rica. This species shows strong sexual dichromatism. The male has a bright scarlet lower back and rump, and is otherwise velvety black. The female is overall gray and orange-brown, with a light orange-green band across the breast. Both males and females have a light blue bill, with a black tip. See photo of a female Passerini's Tanager in my gallery to see this coloration variance.

I took this photo a couple weeks later she passed away.
It was so sudden as she was a healthy girl so we thought.
