We start off this week’s segment of the Thraupidae Family with some Mountain Tanagers. They are very colorful creations from their Creator. Needless to say, they like to live in the mountains, mostly in Central and South America. These genera; Cyanicterus, Bangsia, Buthraupis, Cnemathraupis, Chlorornis, Wetmorethraupis, Anisognathus, Dubusia are considered Mountain Tanagers by Wikipedia.
Typical Tanagers: Pipraeidea, Iridosornis, and Thraupis (covered last week) are being included this week also. These occur from Mexico to Argentina.
The last group Chlorochrysa is a genus of small colorful tanagers. Their natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.
I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old. I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people. (Psalms 77:11-14 KJV)
