Funny, Bayucca, I was talking to a biologist friend here this afternoon and decided it was a summer tanager and changed it, then saw your note. Thanks!

I think your is Piranga rubra. Flava would have a much darker bill and some darker area behind the eyes. For me a wonderful and typical colored male of the Summer Tanager. http://www.sevcikphoto.com/piranga-rubra-1.jpg.html http://multimedia.inbio.ac.cr/m3sINBio/getImage?size=big&id=47510
