Blue-gray Tanager

Description:

The blue-gray tanager is a small bird, weighing between 30 - 40 grams and measuring six inches, including its two-inch-long tail. The head, throat and under parts are a pale gray with a greenish-blue tinge. The tail and wings are a bright blue and its back is a darker blue. While both sexes are similar in appearance, the color of the female is generally duller and grayer than that of the male.

Habitat:

Lives in semiopen habitats from southern Mexico to central South America. This one was spotted at the Central Park Zoo though.
