La historia
I photographed this Burnished-buff Tanager (Stilpnia cayana) at La Macarena, Meta, Colombia. Males have a black mask and turquoise wings and tail, while females are duller, with only a faint shadow of the mask. It is usually seen alone or in pairs and eats mostly fruit, with a liking for Cecropia. It was formerly placed in the genus Tangara and was moved to Stilpnia, a genus introduced in 2016. It is a common tanager of semi-open country with trees, including gardens, plantations and parks. The Sierra de la Macarena is home to about 420 bird species, along with eight species of primates.
I made this frame with a Pentax K-1 and the HD Pentax-D FA 150-450mm f/4.5-5.6, at 1/500 sec, f/5.6, ISO 800. IUCN lists the Burnished-buff Tanager as Least Concern, with a stable population.
