I misplaced my spectacles. These arrived from an online store. A generic prescription. One lens is perfect for me. Better than nothing at all.

My nemesis bird of almost two years, the Blue-headed Vireo (Vireo solitarius) was often seen by folks in the areas I frequented. "Oh, yea, I just had a great blue-headed vireo here," they'd say. "It was super cooperative and showy." And then I would invariably catch a fleeting look at its butt as it disappeared up into the trees! Yesterday, I finally succeeded in making a reasonable photograph of one!
These stunning birds wear white feather spectacles on their slate blue heads, and we are fortunate that, by count, their numbers have been increasing over the last fifty years. Once considered a solitary vireo, they are now recognized as a separate species. In fact, the whole 'solitary vireo' species has been blown out into three separate species. The most vividly colored and eastern-most blue-headed vireo, Cassin's vireo, and the plumbeous vireo.
Keep on gaining in numbers, vireos...you're a pleasure to see!

Look into my eyes
You will see, what you mean to me
Search your heart , search your soul
And when you find me there, you'll search no more
Don't tell me it's not worth trying for,
You can't tell me it's not worth dying for,
You know it's true, everything I do, I do it for you
