Not to be presumptive, but are you sure that the bird was a tanager and not an oriole? I had a young female Baltimore Oriole in the Butterfly Garden on Sunday afternoon. Without seeing the photos, your description of the bird's plumage (color and wing bars). Did it have the bill shape of a tanager?

Also at Castellow were and adilt male Baltimore Oriole near the nature center, and 3-4 Rufous Hummingbirds.
