I've been spending a lot more time in the woods than I did in September and the passerine photo-ops have increased correspondingly.
This Blue-headed Vireo was posed in a manner suggestive in silhouette of the neo-tropical
pygmy-tyrants
A Yellow-throated Vireo today at Floral felt fairly late.
Most of the birds in the trees at this point though are Yellow-rumps.
They're pounding the abundant poison ivy berries.
Sparrows are peaking on average as well. The best one I've seen this fall is Clay-colored; we actually had 2 at Tiscornia that day.
Note the white throat and malar that separates it from Chipping. You can also get a sense of the gray nape as well.
Swamps are a lot more common though.
As are White-crowns
