The Glistening-green Tanager is a small bird, measuring about 12.5 cm in length and weighing approximately 14 grams. It has a short, conical bill, and its wings are pointed, enabling it to fly swiftly through the dense forest canopy.
These birds inhabit the humid forests of Central and South America, where they feed on insects, fruits, and seeds. They are often seen foraging in the treetops, where they flit about agilely, using their ѕһаrр bills to pluck insects and other small рreу from the leaves and branches.
During breeding season, male Glistening-green Tanagers will engage in courtship displays to attract females. They will puff oᴜt their feathers, raise their wings, and hop about energetically to show off their bright green plumage.
