Scarlet Tanager small02

This male Scarlet Tanager was spotted by Mrs. Massey's Sacred Heart  students while on a field trip to Lowe-Volk Park on Friday, May 3 Its  spectacular plumage was first mistaken for that of a cardinal. Many people never get the chance to see this beautiful neotropical migrant as  closely as these students. This Tanager often flits among the top  branches of large trees. According to Ohio ornithologist, Jim McCormac, the Scarlet Tanager is one of our longest-distance songbird migrants,  with wintering grounds as far south as Bolivia.  Photo:  Bill Fisher
