Exceptionally beautiful photo, Deborah! You have taught me a new appreciation for birds. 🙂
What a beauty!
Isn’t he! Thank you so much, Jennie!
Indeed!
Oh … he’s beautiful. I like the wispy pine needles too. Ponderosa Pine or White Pine?
Thank you so much, Denise! I’m not sure which type of Pines those trees were. I need to get better at identifying them since I am hiking in them more and more. I can tell a Juniper from a Pine tree now. I’ve made baby steps. 😀
Did a little research. It’s probably a White Pine. The area has predominately White and Jeffery Pines. Now to learn those differences! 😀
Awesome shot!
Thank you so much, Lisa!
😊
That bird is stunning, Deborah! I’ve not seen anything like that around here. I love its vibrant colors.
I hope you are well! xx
I like his colors too. I was excited to see him. We’re all doing well thank you! I you and yours are too!😄
Who’s a pretty bird? You’re a pretty bird!! Yes, you are!! 😀
LOL! I bet that’s what he was singing hoping all the lady birds would come flocking to him since he’s just here for breeding season. 😀
Yeah – the good looking ones always know they are 😉
Western Tanager, now there is a bird with a color show! You got a nice capture here with all the colors showing and in a great environment too! Beauty for sure.
Thank you so much, John!
It is fun to see all that tropical color against the more familiar pine needles. Cool shot! Are these common, where you are?
I think they’re just passing through or breeding here in the west. Lemme look at my book. Hold please… yes, breeding here during Spring maybe into Summer per my Nat Geo book on birds of North America. I don’t know where they live the rest of the year.
Beautiful bird, excellent photo 🙂
I recently discovered how much enjoy birding, some beautiful images you have captured, thanks for sharing!
It’s so much fun, and educational too. Thank you so much the visit and comment! 😀
Stunning bird and capture, Deborah! I’ve not seen this bird when out west before, hopefully in next couple years in our travels. 😊
Thank you so much, Donna! I hope you see it the next time you’re out here, but I think it’s a migrant and is only passing through. I only see it in Spring.
That’s a beauty, Deborah!

Isn’t he! I was thrilled to see him and came down from the highest point of the tree to sing! 😀
How gorgeous, Deborah. I saw a few of those lovelies last year. Apparently they were just passing through. I haven’t spotted any this year. Hugs on the wing.
They are aren’t they! I think they pass through here too. I’ve only seen them or hear about them being in the area in the Spring. Hugs to you too!
A beautiful bird and fabulous photo. Have a great weekend, Deborah.
Thank you so much, John! I hope you all have a great week-end too!
😊
Wonderful photo, Deborah. What a beautiful bird.
They are pretty aren’t they. Thank you so much, Belinda!
What a beauty. Nice spot and photograph.
He is pretty isn’t he. Thank you, Brian!
Thanks, and the same to you,
Pit
Thanks, Pit!
That’s a lovely bird and a beautiful photo. Good job, Deborah!
Thank you so much, Dan!
