Red-eyed Vireo - Catbird Slough, BC
When they say Red-eyed, its more like a deep red-brown color that can only be seen in the perfect light. These birds are Canada's answer to the Yellow-green Vireo found in Mexico in the summer months. They are not as common here as the Warbling vireo and Hutton's vireo, but they can be found in a couple locations with large amounts of deciduous trees. This was in the Cottonwoods along the Pitt River where you find American Redstarts and this year, a rare Chestnut-sided warbler.
