Tanagers are a group of birds that include around 250 different species, which are found in just about every color of the rainbow. The blue-gray tanager is a particularly beautiful example, with plumage in hues of dusky gray and aqua blue and green.. Just like the tanager, the soft, dimensional herringbone texture of this beanie looks lovely in any color.
