Title: Vireo ID
Post by: noam markus on May 15, 2015, 08:44:07 AM

Saw this one at the Wet Woods two days ago. Still not 100% about it's ID. I'm thinking Philadelphia Vireo. It did not behave or sound like a Warbling Vireo.
There was some yellowish on the breast. Looks like it has a darker cap and a dark eye line.
Thank you for your help.

Yes, it looks like a drab Philadelphia Vireo.  The black between the eye and bill rules out Warbling.
