ID tip
Its plumage is mostly pale blue, with a purplish-blue crown, dark lores and lower auriculars, and distinctive dark spots across the chest. The mantle is mottled greenish-blue and black. The wings and tail are black with blue edgings. The bill is gray with a dark tip. Cabanis's tanagers utter several sibilant vocalizations, hard trills and twitters. The azure-rumped tanager is omnivorous, feeding on fruit and arthropods. In Guatemala, abundance was positively correlated with the density of Ficus aurea trees. Figs of that tree are a main food source.
