Purplish-mantled Tanager
Iridosornis porphyrocephalus
Near ThreatenedThe Purplish-mantled Tanager is a colorful Neotropical tanager that forages for fruit, insects, nectar, or seeds in forest, scrub, or open woodland in Andean slopes. It is mapped as an approximate resident or core native range, with local endemics kept tighter than widespread continental species. Fun fact: tanagers are one of the largest songbird radiations in the Americas, with bills and diets that vary dramatically across habitats.
