Cyan-headed tanager (SciiFii)

The cyan-headed tanager (Tangara cebuano) is a species of brightly colored tanager of the genus Tangara that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The cyan-headed tanager is identified by uniform dark underparts with deep blue lower belly and undertail coverts, and active behavior. The shining white rump can be seen from most angles on perched birds, even when high overhead. The cyan-headed tanager is named for its cyan-colored "crown" on its head. Cyan-headed tanagers pick insects from leaves, or sometimes in flight, but fruits, seeds, and nuts is a major dietary item. The female cyan-headed tanager builds a usually well concealed cup nest and lays three lilac-speckled white eggs. These hatch in 13–14 days and the chicks fledge in a further 15–16 days. The male and female feed the nestlings on insects and fruit, and may be assisted by helpers. The conservation status of the cyan-headed tanager is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the cyan-headed tanager's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
