Red Eyed Vireo (Vireo olivaceus)

I hear these birds all the time, but don't actually see them much. They tend to stay well up in the trees so difficult to spot and get a shot. This one came to our yard, I could hear him as these birds sing almost non-stop, so I knew he was near. He came out into the open just for a moment and I was able to grab this shot before he disappeared back up into the leaves. He's damp as it was raining.
