I have processed my photos of a Plumbeous Vireo I had the pleasure of having a very close-up experience with yesterday in Red Canyon Park north of Canon City. I was fortunate to be near where a small mixed flock was eating their way as they went through the area I had stopped to bird in. There were 2 Plumbeous Vireos, at least 2 Juniper Titmouse, and several Chipping Sparrows (or maybe just moving through in their own small flock at the same time as the others). When one of Plumbeous Vireos flew into a pinyon pine tree I moved closer until I was under the outer limbs of the tree and less than 3 feet from the vireo and a titmouse. They continued foraging, ignoring me as though I was just another limb on the tree--what an enjoyable experience. I have uploaded photos of this Plumbeous Vireo to my Birds and Nature blog <http://birdsandnature.blogspot.com/>and for a change I didn't have to use my extended zoom lens and cropping to get close-up photos.
