Hey all!

I just love needing to ask about what is described as one of the most common birds in Eastern Forests. That being said I just want to make sure because Red-eyed Vireo would actually be lifer number 150! Technically I've seen three lifers since I snapped this shot but I was going back to delete unneeded shots when I realized this wasn't the catbird that had occupied the same spot a moment earlier So, these are from 8.22.12 taken in Northern Baltimore City, Maryland. And without further ado, more examples of my fantastic camerawork!

Sure looks like a Red-eyed Vireo!

I agree with red-eyed vireo!

Cool! This was my 150th bird for about 20 minutes until I stumbled upon a Dowitcher from August 7th 2012 that was labeled as a Stilt Sandpiper (my one and only Stilt Sandpiper) so I'm back to 149. That 150th party lasted all of 20 minutes. It seems the later I try to ID birds (especially on the night of the day long trip) the more wacky my IDs get...

Maybe I'd better go back and recheck my Dodo and Ivory-billed Woodpecker lifer pictures...

Thanks!
