Has anyone ever had a juvenile white-eyed vireo in late May? I had a bird in AZ that looked just like a white-eyed vireo but it's eye was dark. I know the juveniles have dark eyes, but I've always been puzzled that it was dark at that time of year. I would think they haven't even fledged at that time. I thought of maybe a Mexican species but there are none that look like the white-eyed and have a dark eye. Just wondering. Andrew Andrew v. F.
