You're welcome wildsweld. Project Noah uses scientific names to archive spotttings, as common names differ between areas, countries and languages.

Done! Thanks Daniele, I didn't know it would remain unidentified.

Hi wildsweld! Nice shot! Please make sure to fill in the scientific name field for you identified spottings; otherwise they remain on the Unidentified list. Thanks!

Oops, you are correct - not sure why I thought it was a Vireo. Thanks for straightening that out for me. I'll change that now.

Warbling Vireos have a very prominent stripe over the eye. This is a type of flycatcher, and the lack of wing bars, dark head, and the overall plainness of it makes me call it an Eastern Phoebe.
