Thrush-tanager

The rosy thrush-tanager, nestled in its singular genus Rhodinocichla, is a striking bird that garners attention with its long eye-streak and magenta underparts on males, while females sport a deep ochre instead. Approximately 20 cm in length, these birds exhibit a long, curved beak reminiscent of a mimid. Their terrain stretches across parts of Mexico, Costa Rica, Colombia, Panama, and Venezuela, favoring the dense underbrush of dry to moist forests and remnants of degraded woodlands, typically between 500 to 1,500 meters elevation. These birds are solitary or paired, secretive in nature, but can be coaxed into visibility with recordings of their song—a rich melody unique for sometimes being performed as a duet. Their food consists of both fauna and flora, with breeding seasons reported in July in Mexico and from January through September in Costa Rica. Despite being under 50,000 strong, the population is stable, leaving the rosy thrush-tanager classified as "least concern" by conservationists.

Terrific App for Birders
Downloaded Birda around the time my interest in birding was sparked, and it has been a terrific app to help me (1) share my experience, (2) document my sightings, and (3) learn more about birds in general. That said, I also believe Birda is a fantastic app for birders of all experience levels. Great community!

Birda is an excellent platform to share your love of Birding and is a great tool of encouragement for a Birding Beginner like me. Birda has a very kind and supportive community of Birding enthusiasts. For me BIRDA is not only a BIRDING but also a WELLBEING App.

Really great app
It’s easy to use and it’s fun to log the birds you notice on a walk or just in your garden. There’s a option to record the birds you see in a session which is really nice. Good excuse to stop for a while and just watch birds. I am also enjoying the information part where you can find out fact about birds from all over the world.
