Barbara: That female Western Tanager is beautiful and I especially love that second photo! You are very fortunate to have one visit your feeders since it's probably rare for them to be this far east. We have two Tanagers that are Florida residents, the Scarlet Tanager and Summer Tanager and even though my Florida Bird Book says their range is statewide I've never seen either!
I was out on the deck late this afternoon and spotted an Egret in the water ... he caught and ate his dinner and then went searching for more but he saw me he flew away.
