Scarlet Tanager

Scarlet Tanager, a flash of brilliant red, usually very far away and gone so quickly that the camera didn’t have a chance. So much more brilliantly red than a Cardinal, it is an unmistakable brilliant red. These photos are a result of many hours of waiting on the bird to come down from the tree tops.
