Phainopepla literally translates as “shining robe” but this dark, dapper aristocrat with the piercing red eyes and high-fashion crest is sometimes called The Goth Cardinal.

Sitting on a branch is a medium-sized bird, slim and long-tailed, with a slightly peaked crest on its relatively large head. The upperparts are olive brown, with a darker head and short crest. The breast is gray and the belly is a very pale yellow. The brown tail feathers and wings have rufous outer webs, and there are two dull wing bars.
