Observation details

D'abord entendu puis vu et photographié. Présent jusqu'au 24 juillet. Terrain privé. There has been a strange song around home the past few days and late this afternoon. I finally got a good look at the bird -- a White-eyed vireo! I tried to get a photo, but the bird was pretty active and disappeared into the thickets before I could get a shot. We had good opportunity to hear the song and checked it out with various sites on the web for comparison. I had a very nice and close look at the bird and could readily make out its distinctive features, including the obvious white eye and with the song so well heard, it leaves no doubt in my mind as to the identification.
