Sunset tanager (SciiFii)

The sunset tanager (Sicalis chrysitis) is a species of tanager of the genus Sicalis 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 sunset tanager is one of the smallest tanager species of North America, growing to be only about 12 centimeters (4.7 inches) in length. The male is bright orangish-yellow with a red-orange crown. The females are more difficult to identify and are usually just a slightly duller version of the male, but in the southeastern subspecies (Sicalis chrysitis floridanus) they are olive-brown with heavy dark streaks. Omnivorous, the sunset tanager feeds primarily on seeds and arthropods. Typically nesting in cavities, the saffron finch makes use of sites such as abandoned bird nests, bamboo branches, shrubs, and under house roofs, this species is tolerant of human proximity, appearing at suburban areas and frequenting bird tables. They have pleasant but repetitious songs. Males are polygamous, mating with two females during the nesting season, and territorial towards other males. The conservation status of the sunset tanager is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the sunset tanager's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
