GOLDEN-HOODED TANAGER and INDIGO BUNTING Male. 1986. In Leafy Paradise, upper Río Tenedores, SIERRA DEL MICO, above El Cimarrón, Depto. de Izabal, Guatemala. Photo by Peter Wendelken.

GOLDEN-HOODED TANAGER Tangara larvata and INDIGO BUNTING male Passerina cyanea in a leafy paradise of low vegetation along the upper reaches of the Río Tenedores in the Sierra del Mico, Departamento de Izabal in eastern Guatemala on March 21, 1986.

The Indigo Bunting is seen below and slightly to the left of the Golden-hooded Tanager.

The Indigo Bunting is a migratory songbird and this male has largely completed the moult into summer plumage which he will display during the nesting season in eastern North America. The male and female of the Golden-hooded Tanager are alike in plumage. The Golden-hooded Tanager is resident in Guatemala and its geographic range extends from southern Mexico through Central American to northwestern Ecuador.

Un Tangarå Capuchidorada Tangara larvata y un macho del Colorín Azul Passerina cyanea dentro de vegetación baja a lo largo de las partes superiores del Río Tenedores el la Sierra del Mico, Departamento de Izabal en el oriente de Guatemala el 21 de marzo de 1986.

En la foto el Colorín Azul se ve por debajo del Tangarå Capuchidorada.

El Colorín Azul es ave migratoria y este macho en gran parte ya ha cambiado su plumaje para la estación de anidar en el oriente de América del Norte. El macho y la hembra del Tangarå Capuchidorada tienen plumajes muy semejantes. El Tangarå Capuchidorada es ave residente en Guatemala y se halla del sur de México a través de América Central al noroeste de Ecuador en América del Sur.
