Under the Maples Acquaintance will probably make it as characteristic and unmistakable as any of our four other vireo songs. The Foot-path Way I did not see a jay struck, but a vireo would circle one closely as it perched and pursue it when it flew, following as far as 100 yards beyond territorial bounds.

Under the Maples In these two respects it suggests the solitary vireo, though it never reproduces the indescribably sweet cadence, the real "dying fall," of that most delightful songster. The Foot-path Way The marked similarity in the essential features of aggressive behavior in North American vireos attests to their close relationship.

Birds in the Bush One of them, the warbling vireo, they call the 'brigadier' on account of its peculiar note, and the other or red-eyed vireo, the 'preacher,' from its earnest manner of utterance. When Life Was Young At the Old Farm in Maine The red-eyed vireo has almost as extensive a range, and at least in New England is possibly more numerous; but except among ornithologists it remains a stranger, even to country-bred people. The Foot-path Way I am of the opinion that the vast majority of vireos are single-brooded solely by virtue of the limited success of early nesting efforts, and that in "good" years most pairs would be double-brooded. Natural History of the Bell Vireo, Vireo bellii Audubon Then a crow mamma created a diversion by helping herself to an egg for her baby's breakfast, when a robin and a vireo—curious pair!—took after her with loud cries of indignation and reproach.

Song-waves Unlike swallows, robins, bluebirds, blackbirds, and perhaps most of the sparrows, our smaller wood birds, the warblers and vireos especially, appear to move as a general thing in mixed flocks. The Foot-path Way My own field observations and the circumstances of the innumerable instances recorded in the literature of male vireos singing from the nest suggest that this is a function of the proximity of the observer. Natural History of the Bell Vireo, Vireo bellii Audubon The wood-pewee was unheard, and even the vireo seemed to have finished his endless song and gone his way. Little Brothers of the Air The solitary vireo may once in a while be heard in a roadside tree, chanting as familiarly as any red-eye; but he is much less abundant than the latter, and, as a rule, more retiring. Birds in the Bush The hummingbird studs the outside of its nest with lichens, and the vireo drapes a cobweb curtain around her fairy cup.

The Last Harvest The wood pewee and the kingbird succeed, I think, in driving him away; but the vireos and warblers, being so much smaller, suffer greatly from his depredations. Our Bird Comrades One little red-eyed vireo's nest had five cowbirds' eggs,—none of her own.

The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 13, No. 75, January, 1864 In Kansas it is a summer resident, hanging its little basket of a nest on the twigs of bushes or low trees, after the regular vireo fashion. Our Bird Comrades The garden was very still, steeped and drowsing in the bright clear sunlight; only the bees were busy there, calling from flower-door to flower-door, and sometimes a vireo's sweet whistle fluted through the leaves. Slippy McGee, Sometimes Known as the Butterfly Man By exercising extreme caution, and approaching inch by inch, I have climbed a tree to the nest of a yellow-throated vireo, and at the first attempt handed the bird a meal-worm with my fingers.
