Icterus auratus
This bird was really enjoying the fruit and/or insects on the fruit in this tree.
low lying coastal tropical jungle
Not a problem--I do the same thing with moths (that's my speciality area)
Sorry - I corrected the ID I went back and checked range maps. Kind of did this one quick. Apologize for the mis-information.
Are you certain in the ID? The guides I looked at say that Streak-backed is in Western Mexico, and this picture is easternmost mexico.
