I want to go ahead and call this a Scarlet but something is saying possibly Summer.  Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.





Thanks in advance,
Walter :?

Here is a female scarlet I got last week. I wasn't able to see the sides or back.

It looks like a Scarlet Tanager to me (sorry).  The face is very plain and the bill doesn't look overly large.  The wings also look a bit too dark for a Summer Tanager.
