The Rose-throated Tanager is a beautiful and somewhat shy tanager endemic to the Yucatán Peninsula, distinguished by the male's vibrant rose-pink throat and breast against a reddish-orange body.
Where to spot
Endemic to the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico, Belize, and northern Guatemala, inhabiting semi-deciduous and evergreen forests.
How to spot
Look in the mid-story and canopy of dry or semi-deciduous forests. They can be difficult to spot as they tend to stay higher in the trees. Listen for their clear, whistled song, similar to other Piranga tanagers.
When to spot
A resident species, observable year-round within its range. Early mornings are best for activity.

This species is an example of a "cryptic" migrant, undertaking short-distance migrations within the Yucatán region, moving between different forest types seasonally.
