Scarlet Tanager !!!

Why it is always better to go birding with friends (this was our group talking):
I see something moving in the limbs up high.
It's bright red.
It looks as red as a cardinal.
But I don't think it's a cardinal.
IT'S THE SCARLET TANAGER!!!!!

I had been wanting to see this bird all season, and searching for it everywhere. It took a group effort to find it: @pattyp @jbird56 @taffy @ukandie1 and one more friend who has not yet joined 365. This lovely bird was on a tree behind several in front of it, and quite high up.

Scarlet Tanagers are spectacular. Great catch. They are not easy to photograph especially if they are staying high in the trees.
