Red-capped Cardinal (Paroaria gularis gularis) - 20181018-02

            Small, boldly colored tanager found in vegetation around lakes and rivers. Bright red head and black-and-white plumage are instantly recognizable. Quite social and often found in pairs or groups as they forage low in waterside vegetation. Frequently perches on branches sticking out of the water.  Very similar to Masked Cardinal, but ranges do not overlap.  (eBird)

Apparently, left-over rice is quite palatable to the birds and animals around the station.  We've seen this in other countries as well.
