That Bird Yesterday

That poor bird that flew into my window yesterday turned out to be a scarlet tanager.  This is the first one I've seen this year and that is extra sad because it is now dead.  I knew it was too big to be a warbler. I cleaned the house and can't seem to find my bird field guides anywhere.  Those black wings were so striking.  Funny how a bird so red can turn so green.
