Someone posted a pic of this bird on my Facebook page with no info about it. I would appreciate any effort in IDing it.

Looks like a Vermilion Flycatcher with weird saturation levels... could be something totally different though.

I agree, Vermilion Flycatcher. Possibly taken in an aviary, with fluorescent lights?

Another for Vermillion. Apparently these guys start to lose their bright color when held in captivity, so it could be a combination of that and weird lighting/post-processing as mentioned above.
