Trevor L. Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Given that it is the most likely option, I would think so. I don’t know how to tell between Blue-headed and Cassin’s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hasan Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 This is a classic Cassin's, no reason to consider Blue-headed here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty clearly not- Plumbeous is never this bright and colorful, and again there's no reason to consider it given the photos. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was giving @Trevor L. notice that Plumbeous Vireo is more n range of cassin’s than blue-headed. Sorry about the confusion! Guess I worded my original post wrong.

Charlie Spencer Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 @Corey, how about a trigger warning or a spoiler or some form of alert, before I get a bird butt in the face first thing in the morning? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
