Hi Everyone--
This morning 6/15 at work, I was just getting out of my car when I heard a
really loud vireo song. This is odd already, because the trees here in the
high-tech district of Pleasanton (this is near Inglewood and Hacienda)
usually harbor only bushtits and goldfinches. I walked up to the tree where
I had heard it, and saw a flock of chickadees and the undersides of a vireo.
What little I saw of it naked-eye actually looked more like Plumbeous, but
then it disappeared into the leaves, and I heard 30 seconds of a song that
could only have been Red-eyed (fast and sweet with pure tones, not slow and
burry), unless this vireo has spent time in Idaho or points east. I remember
a Yellow-throated Vireo in Buttterbredt Springs a couple of years ago that
switched between Yellow-throated and "Solitary" song patterns.
