Unfortunately, I don't carry a camera when I go birding and therefore didn't get any pics.<br /><br />The article you're looking for is here:<br />http://www.californiabirds.org/members/Solitary%20Vireo%20complex.pdf<br /><br />FWIW, your bird looks pretty good for Cassin's to me, although I'm not very experienced with them. I'd be interested to hear what others with more experience with Cassin's think.<br /><br />My bird showed the same pro-Cassin's features as yours (weak contrast in malar area, pale head, little contrast between head and back, little colouring on sides). <br /><br />Good luck with this bird!<br /><br />Gavin plattGavin Platthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06631487169540592854noreply@blogger.com
