Hopefully the last one I will have to ask for help with, but I shot this vireo sp.??? in New Mexico, I don't think it is red-eye or warbling but I could be wrong...

Hi Ryan,

Looks good for Warbling Vireo. Red-eyed Vireo would have more pronounced eye-line, with a contrasting gray cap and longer bill. (Also, they are not normally found in New Mexico).

Best,
Jim

P.S.: And no problem at all about asking for IDs. That is what we are here for!

I would have said warbling vireo....but I have never seen a warbling vireo with the tannish colour that flows down the wing.....This bird was also exceptionally close so that could possibly be the reason why I am seeing that....
