Gray-and-gold Tanager Poecilostreptus palmeri

Chunky medium-sized tanager found in the canopy of lowland and foothill forest from extreme eastern Panama to northwest Ecuador. Unmistakable in range: pale silvery-gray overall with a black face, a black shoulder, and messy black and gold spotting on the breast and nape. Pairs or small groups are typically seen in the canopy, sometimes perched quite conspicuously at the edge of forest. Often follows mixed-species flocks.
