We photographed these Saffron Finches, Sicalis flaveola (a South American tanager), perched among various types of lichens while birding Intervales State Park in Brazil on October 12, 2011. Males are a bright yellow with an orange crown. Females are duller and lack orange on the crown. Temperatures on this cloudy morning with intermittent rain were in the 60's. Intervales State Park is located on a 3,300 foot high escarpment in the State of São Paulo in the Paranapiacaba mountain range/upper Ribeira Valley, southwest of the city of São Paulo and north of Curitiba.
