Blue-headed Vireo (Vireo solitarius), Lower Verde River, Maricopa CountyThis Blue-headed Vireo was photographed by Tommy DeBardeleben on 19 November 2021 and by Chris McCreedy on 26 November 2021 This Blue-headed Vireo was found and photographed by Tommy DeBardeleben on 19 November, 2021 in a stretch of the Verde River that is about a mile south of the Box Bar Recreation Site. There are few accepted records of the Blue-headed Vireo in Arizona. The Arizona Bird Committee takes a conservative approach to reports of this species, which can be indistinguishable from the regularly-occurring Cassin's Vireo. On average, Blue-headed Vireos are more contrastingly marked than Cassin's, with brighter yellow contrasting with cleaner white on the underparts, a darker steel-blue cap contrasting more strongly with the white throat and spectacles and green back, and more white on the wing and tail edgings. 19 November 2021, photo by Tommy DeBardeleben ![]() 19 November 2021, photo by Tommy DeBardeleben ![]() 26 November 2021, photo by Chris McCreedy All photos are copyrighted© by photographer |
