It's Yellow, It's Green....

It's Yellow-green.  Vireo.

Yellow-green vireo (Vireo flavovirindis)

This rare active songbird is continuing, as of this post, at Laguna Grande Regional Park in Seaside, Monterey County.

Actively foraging during this particular encounter, the Yellow-green vireo is primarily a passerine of Central America and Mexico.

The morning marine layer, and a super quick mover successfully foraging all the while made for a poor photo opportunity.  However, most importantly it made for a delightful observation shared with Kaia.  An enjoyable time respectfully experiencing a personal intersection with this being's life.

We all find ourselves a little wayward in life from time to time.  For this vireo, it seemed to have plenty to forage on and adequate shelter to use while it finds its way through this life.
I do too, and am quite thankful for it.

This bird continued to forage along the bank-side willows across from the restrooms on Virgin Ave side of the park.
