Tanagers are a group of passerine (perching) birds in the Americas that are often very colorful. Here are a bunch of them that I photographed in Costa Rica. I hope you like them!

Thanks, guys! We visited the Cano Negro wetlands preserve on the CR/Nicaragua border and shot these iguanas and the Jesus Christ lizard, the one that runs across water. It was awesome to see it run across 20 feet of water in person!
