Bell's Vireo
Vireo bellii
Golden Gate Park
San Francisco
12 November 2005
On October 30, 2005 Emilie Strauss along with Mike McClaskey, Steve Hayashi and Lillian Fuji found this Bell's Vireo in the Rhododendron Dell in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco.
Cindy and I made four different attempts before finding this hyperactive, yet suprisingly skulky, vireo. On an additional fifth visit I managed about 30 seconds of video with a Sony VX-1000 and 5x Sigma telephoto attachment. The final shot has been stabilized with Pinnacle Studio editing software.
