According to the field guide Western Tanager is rare in Belize. I had one in Belize City on 12/3/08 in a fruiting palm along with several scissor-tailed flycatchers, catbirds, and golden-fronted woodpeckers. They were across from the marina parkinglot. I forget what the hotel name is but I think its owns the marina where people meet for scuba diving trips. I also had a Ruddy Quail-Dove on Moho Caye, Toledo District on 12/9/08. The book says they are not found away from the mainland. I had a Savannah Sparrow and Indigo Bunting on Hunting Caye in the Sapadilla Cayes on 12/10/08 too. Don't knoiw if these are rare or not.
