Cobirders,

The vireo is currently along the creek that flows through the park. The most expeditious way to see the bird is to park at the Littleton ice rink. Cross the footbridge to the park and take an immediate left along the highlight canal trail heading north. Proceed approximately 1K to where there is an orange fence along the trail. Make a 90° turn down the hill to the creek and that is where the bird was a few minutes ago. It is singing sporadically.

Good birding,

White-eyed Vireo still continues to be seen and call in the previously described area as of 10 AM.

Hi all,
The vireo was seen about 1/4 of a mile down the Highlight canal trail on the west side, occasionally singing.


Good Birding,

I heard the vireo around 11:45, while walking my dog at deKoevend. There was also an Olive-sided Flycatcher, a Western Wood-Pewee, and a Western Kingbird farther northwest on the trail. 

While watching the vireo, it went silent while two boys adventured off trail, near the canal. I hung around for fifteen minutes after they left and didn't hear the bird. The vireo has hung around the same 20 or so yards along the canal for several days now, even as the town has mowed the grass between the trail and canal -- and despite the regular activity at the park. So hopefully it hasn't been scared off. If you go looking for the bird this afternoon or evening, it'd be great to know if it is still around.

The White-eyed Vireo continues singing and foraging in the same general area of deKoevend.
