#tanager — Public Fediverse posts

Here are my Perpetual Journal nature observations fm my yard 1, 2 & 3 yrs ago this week: Prickly Pear fruits; Velvet Mesquite catkins & seedpods; Western Tanager. This week in ‘26 we see lots of PP fruits, some VM catkins, & no Tanagers.

don't go away mad, just go away! -- song of the masked crimson tanager

photography note -- like the silver beaked tanager, this species has a reflective spot on the bill, not sure why, i guess i need to look it up & see if anyone knows 🤣

unlike silver beaks, males & females both have this eye-catching color pattern, we can't assume this show off is a male

i swear this same looker was sitting in the same spot just waiting to be photo'd on my last trip in 2023...

I’ve got a new greeting card in my shop: a Western Tanager, for all my Pacific Coast friends.

This bird was “discovered” by the Lewis and Clark expedition, and mistakenly classified as a tanager. It’s actually part of the cardinal family.

I made this for a local lady, who suggested it to me as she visited my booth at last week’s Friday Night Market here in Eureka, CA. It turned out to be one of the brightest cards I’ve ever done. I did it on my livestream this week.

Here’s the listing: https://coreyartusimagery.com/products/western-tanager-greeting-card

I do all my work by hand, one stylus stroke at a time, using Procreate on my iPad Pro. I do not use any generative nonsense at any point in the process—not even for reference. I am proud to say everything I do is #HumanMade

this female flame-rumped tanager was relentless with the food begging, at one point, the exasperated male tried to stuff her bill with some of the ferns but she was not fooled...

"i heard your snide comment about how i need to practice to pounce on nothing more dangerous than a banana, but u are only showing your envy of how easy i make it look" -- blue-capped tanager

(yes, i know the whole head is blue, not just the cap, but i don't name em, i just identify em)
