Since I posted last night about the vireo I found in Lamar Woods that was difficult for me to id, I have received emails from several highly skilled birders all agreeing that this is a Blue-headed Vireo. I failed to note last night that the photos I posted had only been cropped with no other editing to preserve the coloration, etc for identification. I have since tweaked the photos and uploaded them to my Birds and Nature <http://BirdsAndNature.blogspot.com>blog.
I saw another vireo in Lamar Woods yesterday that I think was a Philadelphia Vireo--dark crown, light supercillium, and yellow underparts. However, I saw it briefly at the top of a 30 foot tree and this is another species I am not familiar with so I am only considering it a possible. As I noted last night, Lamar Woods was still really hopping with birds. Interestingly I didn't see this second vireo until after 1 pm (actually I briefly refound the Blue-headed Vireo just after 1 pm).
