A few years ago, I photograghed a red tanager in my area that had some features in common with the one you shot, though the beak was quite different. https://www.flickr.com/photos/hmancuso/50106001271/in/photolist-2jkGmvD-2kbqxPA-2gZKAPK-2gstFxA-2jaEwgw-23JH2RA-2gDtE8V-2je14fE-25nRwy8-25x61bu-Uw9xuA-2jdULXE-2j9r17j-27juFBR-2k4bWoc-2gQDWNC-2hqyPux-2jdVcuA-2heo277-Su3NEQ-26dGa99-2jbTd21-2iPaAeV-EXufyB-26d2eqK-29iMyBP-2iZdHB7-2bGpSSX-2hLyRSP-25WR3W8-2gedVfQ-2csuL4b-2ggPbDq-2jdULU8-Ms26XS-2cq2zAp-2iRBKP2-27wZFaT-2g6avHs-2jBHq5k-2gbWFvy-23HK5Un-2jgbgs6-2jfkQDe-2bXHtnK-2gQEKCR-2gQEKxa-2g5btUL-2hjdUFD-HXixd5

Like yourself, I have missed shooting it.

Wow, great image! I'm amazed at how similar the Brazilian tanager is to the scarlet tanager despite being in different families.
