"One of the most numerous summer birds in eastern woods. It is not the most often seen, because it tends to stay out of sight in the leafy treetops, searching methodically among the foliage for insects. However, its song -- a series of short, monotonous phrases, as if it were endlessly asking and answering the same question -- can be heard constantly during the nesting season, even on hot summer afternoons."

My first white-eyed vireo (Vireo griseus) pics.  Gonna be honest, Tumblr annoys me now so I’m moving my stuff to Instagram.  I’m under mrlascorpio83.  I literally can’t do this site marking my stuff as adult content and it’s pretty much like I’m just posting with barely any activity so it’s for the best.
