Scarlet Tanager
- Scarlet Tanagers have been recorded eating over 2,000 gypsy moth caterpillars in an hour.
- They become noisy and swoop around most birds who prey on them, such as Blue Jays and Eastern Screech owls, however they remain still and quiet around Merlins and American Crows.
- A group of tanagers are collectively known as a "season" of tanagers.
