In Reply to: TAS Walk at A.D. Barnes, 10/3: Warbling and Philadelphia Vireos posted by Toe
After missing the walk today we decided to still try for the Warbling Vireo, we arrived at Barnes around 5:00 p.m. and started to look for the Vireo. At 5:35 we found a small feeding flock mostly consisting of N. Parula and BG Gnatcatchers, after spending some time observing some Tennessee Warblers we found two Vireos side by side gleaming leaves in search of insects for dinner. We had a Warbling and Philadelphia Vireo feeding side by side making for an awesome comparison. The birds were located to the south of the fenced off area south of the elevated boardwalk, the birds were in the small hammock that has a huge bee hive hanging off a oak we believe (can't remember which tree). Look for the bees and then search the hammock for the bird.
A special thanks to Toe for alerting us to such a great bird!
