Description
The Blue-headed Vireo (Vireo solitarius) is one of those attractive, reasonably common bird species that most folks never notice. They breed in cooler temperate forests, especially where evergreens predominate, or in mixed growth with birch and maple, alder, maples and so on. But on migration they may show up anywhere, through much of temperate eastern and south-eastern North America. They nest from the Yukon to southern Newfoundland south in the east through the mountain forests as far south as northern Georgia. I have shown an adult male on his fall migration, but there is little to no difference in colour and pattern between the sexes and age groups. This 9 by 12 inch painting is approximately life-size and is in oils, on birch panel mounted on a basswood frame.
