Hello Peter!
This is a very original (especially in colouration) bird species. It is very good exposed against to delicate background. On the other hand I believe that a little better DOF would be nice, or the picture was sharpned a little too much (or cropped?).
Anyway, thanks to your bird hobby I can learn a lot about birds from all around the world, and thank you for that!
Best greetings and have a nice Easter Holidays!

Hello Peter,
Excellent capture of this beautiful Tanager from a nice POV. The bright turquoise colour on the wing cowerts seems to be missing but maybe ít's a young one. Great focus, sharp details and fine colours against a nice soft background.
TFS and regards, Ulla

Hi Peter,
congrats for a rare bird, it's always nice with new species.
The plumage is lovely both in colours and pattern.
Good sharpness with fine details and the composition are also very nice.
Well done.

Hello Peter,
Fine capture of a Turquoise Tanager with good sharpness and contrasting well against a fine bokeh BG in a fine composition. Perhaps the turqoise colours irridesc only at certain angles.
Congratulations on posting a great shot of new species on TN and thanks for sharing it.
Have a good easter weekend,
Ivan

Hi Peter

Very interresting bird. I must say that I cannot remember seeing it before. Steve is a 'mamba' and a great help on this site with his knowledge of birds.

You managed to capture good details in the plumage and represented it with fine contrasts. The colours seems natural and I like the almost single-toned BG the makes the bird stand out very well.

Good work and TFS.
Regards
Loot

Hi Peter,

These South American Birds are beautiful!! The colors of this Tanager are gorgeous. Excellent details and textures of the face, feathers, and wings. I love the pose and the composition on the diagonal branch. Beautiful!
