Ah, Thanks JoshuaGSmith...I got the male too and when I saw this one on the next tree I wondered if I had been lucky to get the pair. I had been indeed! Thanks.

The amount of white on the female is variable in this species. The field marks check out; the black line across eye, streaks on breast, and orange bill.
