Red-eyed Vireo.
Cold front moved through last night. Wind a-blowin’. Dressed Jack in his blaze orange jacket, what with some early hunting going on. Me, I liked to froze my fingers.
Not many birds were out—or at least none that I saw (or could hear above the wind). Did get a look at a solitary Herring Gull, glimpsed of a few yellow-rumps and chickadees.
Then, just as we were about to arrive back at the parking lot, I came face to face with a young Red-Eyed Vireo.
