Scarlet Tanager. 



THE SCARLET TANAGER. 



THE male Tanager gives up its scarlet color when 

 nesting time is over, but wears the velvety jet 

 black of his wings. A dull olive green is the color 

 of the female, and of the male when the scarlet is 

 dropped. Its song resembles that of the Robin, but 

 is not so free and clear.
