YELLOW-THROATED VIREO. 
628. Lanivireo flavifrons. 5%4 inches. 
Upper parts greenish; throat, breast and line over 
eye yellow; two ‘prominent whitish wing bars. 
A handsome Vireo found in localities such as are 
frequented by the Red-eyed species. Nowhere do they 
appear to be as abundant as that species, however; they 
are more abundant than many suppose, but the difficulty 
of clearly seeing the yellow breast when they are feeding 
in the tree tops, combined with the similarity of their 
songs, usually caused them to be passed by without in- 
spection. 
Song.—Similar to that of the Red-eye, but louder 
and more nasal, less varied and not uttered as often. 
Nest.—A pensile structure of strips of bark, grasses, 
ete., with the outside often ornamented with lichens; 
three to five eggs with a creamy or rosy-white tint, 
specked, more profusely than those of the Red-eye, with 
reddish brown (.82 x .60). 
Range.—LEastern U. S., breeding from the Gulf to 
southern Canada; winters in Central America.
