Hi Eli,
This is a photo print that was given to me to id in mid November, from Northern
Williamson Co. It seems to have been taken in August. I suspected a Western
Tanager but the photo is so poor that I couldn't get anyone to agree or commit
to the decision. Your better photos have supported my suspicions! I'm looking
forward to more comments.

This morning shortly before breakfast I spotted this female Western
Tanager perched on top of my platform feeder. I rushed to get my camera but
it flew away. However, approximately 20 minutes later it returned to check
out a black oil/ suet feeder. Graham Gerdeman came by and we scoped out the
feeders for several hours, but it didn’t return. If I see it again, I will
post more info, and if it makes it a habit we would be willing to schedule
some visits to see it.
