Yellow-throated Vireo


There in the middle of the photo is a yellow-throated vireo. Easily identified by its bright yellow throat, two clear wing bars, and white underparts.

The Yellow-throated Vireo is typically a solitary bird on migration and during the winter. It forms only loose associations with mixed-species foraging flocks. In the summer, pairs associate only long enough to raise a brood of young.
