OLIVE-BACKED EUPHONIA FEEDING ON ARACEA, PALENQUE MAYAN RUINS, CHIAPAS,MEXICO, 11/9/2018

      We can ID this finch as an Olive-backed Euphonia as follows:

• Olive upperparts
• Bluish sides
• Thick, stubby bill
• Reddish belly and vent

       Because of the lighting and reflection from the red flowers the colors on this bird can be deceptive.  Our Birding Guide did ID this bird as a Olive-backed Euphonia, as did Merlin Bird Photo app.

      The Olive-backed Euphonia is a new species to our Photographic Life List, which now stands at 830.
