- Comments: "Flagged: a low-density migrant, and easy to overlook. On the SW corner of the lake, across from the south end West Island, high up in the trees. Vireo that was all yellow underneath, including all through the throat, with a dark eyeline. More drab on top, especially around the top of the head, which was more gray. Conditions for photos were very challenging, but identified first through bins, and photos seem at the very least suggestive. Thankfully, this individual was way too bright for there to be confusion with Warbling."

Clever man is a chicken; it can fly, but a little. Genius, on the other hand, is a migratory bird; it can fly at high altitudes until He disappears on the horizon!
