We were surprised when we saw this picture (look left leg) taken by my son Juan Fernando. Beyond disability, a bird who faces its reality and fights against it. This little bird is a "Blue-gray Tanager", Thraupis episcopus a medium-sized South American songbird of the Tanager family, Thraupidae. Its range is from Mexico south to northeast Bolivia and northern Brazil, all of the Amazon Basin, except the very south. It has been introduced to Lima (Peru). On Trinidad and Tobago, this bird is called Blue Jean, and we call it "Azulejo".
Quedamos sorprendidos al ver esta foto (miren la pierna izquierda) tomada por mi hijo Juan Fernando . Mas alla de su discapacidad, un ave que enfrenta su realidad y lucha contra ella. Este pequeño pajaro es una Tangara azulada (Thraupis episcopus). Se distribuye desde México hacia el sur, hasta el noreste de Bolivia y el norte de Brasil; en toda la Cuenca Amazónica, excepto el extremo sur. En Trinidad y Tobago, esta ave es llamada "Blue Jean" y aqui la llamamos Azulejo.
