Detalhes da observação
I realize it's a bit taboo to report this species in Texas and my hastily-written iPhone notes may have sounded a bit dismissive as if this were a straightforward identification. However, I did see an obvious Blue-headed Vireo later in the day at Cook's Slough, which made me even more confident that this wasn't that species. I first located this bird by voice, as it was giving a soft jumbly warble in a small pecan tree with a kinglet and chickadee flock around Pecan Bottom. I'm not sure this particular vocalization will do anything to elucidate the identification, although I have a video recording of it if anybody is interested. Otherwise, the head was gray and the coloration blended rather smoothly into the back. The border between the face and the throat was not sharply defined as I'm used to seeing in BHVI. There was a slight yellow wash on the upper flanks and the vent, which I believe rule out PLVI. The lower flanks, where usually brightest in BHVI, were not bright at all in this bird. Overall the bird seemed rather lightweight and didn't impart an overbearing presence.
