Identification

POWERED BY MERLIN

This Andean species is fairly common in dry open habitats in Colombia and Ecuador. Look for an overall pale gray-blue bird with brighter turquoise wings, a black mask, and an orange cap. Sexes alike. Most similar to Burnished-buff Tanager but no range overlap. Typically seen in pairs or small flocks moving through shrubby woodlands, second growth, and gardens.
