Shirley,
Great photos of a unexpected winter tanager! Even more surprising is that it
is a January record.
Prior winter records for Summer Tanager in the Central Brazos Valley are few:
16 Dec 1974 â College Station CBC
21 Dec 1973 â College Station CBC
29 Mar 2011 â Fort Boggy State Park (Keith Arnold)
31 Mar 1998 â Brison Park (Joan Dziezyc)
If it sticks around, let me know the dates. I will report this in my winter
NAB article.

This is a first for me in the dead of winter -- Summer Tanager! What a
surprise on this cold, cold day! Landed in my Lady Banks Rose as I was washing
dishes. Photos taken through kitchen window.
