Hi Everyone, Likewise I was at Homestead Park this morning about 8:15AM and I also observed the Bell's Vireo.He was in a dead tree between the 1/4 mile and 1/2 mile marker walking northward toward Heritage Trail Metro Park. He was very shy,attempting to hide his face and becoming very still as he was being observed. Further along,in the Heritage portion north of Hayden Run Rd., I caught up with the Great Blue Heron that flew over me earlier as I was hiking northward- it was wading in a very small pond there. While observing it a while,I heard at least 1 Common Yellowthroat singing nearby.....
