The summer tanager at the homemade peanutbutter feeder on the McCoy farm - is a 
female and looks exactly like the Western species in Sibleys - It has a 
noticable eye-ring and very large flesh-colored bill - general color of head 
nape and back is browish and the throat, breast, belly is yellowish - a little 
olive green on head and tail.
 
Viewed last evening  and  this morning from inside the house at a distance of 
about 20 feet. Unfortunately I do not own a camera so no photo.
 
The general location of the McCoy farm is a road going about a mile into a 
valley near the cornor of CTH F and McKenna Rd about 3 miles north of 
Blanchardville. If any one wants directions on how to see this bird (and 
hopefully photograph) call me at either
608 238-6039  or 608 444-4351.
