Greyish saltator : ウィキペディア英語版 | Greyish saltator
The greyish saltator (''Saltator coerulescens'') is a seed-eating songbird that is widespread in the tropical Americas. Traditionally placed in the cardinal family (Cardinalidae), the saltators actually seem to be closer to the tanagers (Thraupidae).〔See the genus article for details〕 In El Salvador, it is well known as ''dichosofui'' after the "elaborate" version of its call, which sounds like a drawn-out ''¡dichoso fui!'', Spanish for "I was happy!" ==Description==
On average, the greyish saltator is 20 cm long and weighs 52 g. The plumage depends on age and subspecies, but in general this bird has grey or greyish-olive upperparts, a white stripe over the eye, a narrow white throat, a grey breast and a buff or cinnamon belly. The common call is a long-drawn upward slur, ''ch'wheeet'' or ''ch'kweeee'', sometimes with a more elaborate beginning, as ''hi'whee chu weeeeh''. The song is a warble, usually fairly short, varying from nasal to mellow.〔Howell & Webb (1995)〕
