white-eyed vireo
The white-eyed vireo is a small songbird found primarily in the eastern United States and parts of Mexico. It is easily recognizable by its olive-green back, yellow underparts, and distinctive white eye. This bird typically inhabits shrubby areas, woodlands, and gardens, where it forages for insects and berries.
During the breeding season, the white-eyed vireo builds a cup-shaped nest in dense vegetation. Its song is a series of clear, whistled notes, often described as sounding like "chewy-chewy-chewy." These birds are known for their active behavior and can often be seen flitting through the foliage in search of food.
