Summer Tanager (Piranga rubra) (1) CONFIRMED
- Reported Jul 05, 2025 11:00 by Steve Rothstein
- Home, Santa Barbara, California, Santa Barbara, California
- Map: http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&t=p&z=13&<q...>,-119.7872829&<ll...>,-119.7872829 - Checklist: https://ebird.org/checklist/S258493159 - Media: 3 Photos
- Comments: "Continuing Summer Tanager observed about 25 m from where it was seen on June 28. Oddly for a tanager, bird flushed from ground level or no more than 1.5 m up within a m of me. It perched about 2 m from me for a few min. So was able to get many pictures with phone."
