 Blue-headed Vireo
The blue-headed vireo was once called the solitary vireo. However after some study the solitary vireo was divided into three distinct species. The plumbeous, Cassin's, and blue-headed vireo. The blue-headed vireo has a more easterly range then the other two species, with a breeding range through out the eastern two thirds of Canada and the north eastern United States. They winter in Mexico, Central America, and along the  Gulf coast. This one stopped by for a few days during the spring migration.

blue-headed vireo The blue-headed vireo was at one time called the solitary vireo and was found through out much of North America. However it was determined that there was enough difference between birds from each area to break the solitary vireo into three distinct species. The blue-headed vireo breed in the deciduous and conifer forests of eastern Canada. Since their main food source is insects they migrate south and spend the winter in the southeastern US, Mexico and Central America.
