I found the Bell's Vireo in the same location that it has been in the last couple years. It is along the bike trail just east of the intersection of Linden Avenue and Washington Street near downtown Springfield. This is next to a business called Custom Tire. There was also an American Avocet at what used to be the beach at Buck Creek State Park. The beach is entirely under water but the avocet was standing in the water where the beach was.
