On March 19, 2023 I was with Judy and my granddaughter, Savannah, at
Tinamu Reserve near Manizales, Colombia. I took a photo of a gray-headed tanager, as identified by my guide, but I was unable to get an in-focus shot.

| This is the best I got. |
 |
| This is ssp. affinis, but I believe I saw ssp. cristata. |
Birds of the World has a
photo of a gray-headed tanager from Caldas, Colombia which is very near to where we were. It is a lowland tanager found in forested habitats. Its plumage is yellowish olive over much of its body, with a gray head and crest. There are seven subspecies.
 |
| Range from Birds of the World. Ssp. cristata is found in east Panama, north Colombia and northwest Venezuela. |
