Summer Tanager

The Summer Tanager, Piranga rubra, is a very interesting critter.  They are known for dining on bees and wasps, often catching them in flight, taking them to a tree and beating them to death, removing the stinger by rubbing it against a branch.  The female is yellow, sometimes with red feathers blended in.  The male above is the only one I have seen.  I have seen several females the last couple years, but the male apparently is more shy.
