I just GoogledScarlet Tanager + orange images and got some that looked like your birddescription sounded, especially the one on this page: http://www.ctbirding.org/photos.htm What do you think?

I also saw a tanager around 7:45 am inthe very same spot; bird had yellow sides but a red breast, rump and head,and black wings. I also did not have a camera with me but had a verygood look at it. I was a loss to identify it. Obviously his tanagerwas seen several hours later and but no field marks were proved. This mayor may not be the same bird? May be someone should shed some light on theone I saw. Hybrid?
