Hi folks,
Oops :-) I was just looking at photos of the alticola subspecies of
Blue-headed Vireo. It does have more olive/gray flanks and contrasty crown
etc. and does breed just west of here. Sorry for the missinterpretation. I
have seen Plumbeous (though not since '96) and it is more... plumbeous
(leaden). Thanks for the info on the southern subspecie's differences.
Cheers
Paul Champlin
