Spotted
The Golden Vireo is a vibrant New World songbird, strikingly bright yellow on its underparts and olive-green on its back. It is an active insectivore, foraging deliberately in the mid-story of various woodlands.
Where to spot
Endemic to Mexico, primarily found in the western and southwestern parts. It inhabits arid and semi-arid woodlands, oak forests, and thorn scrub.
How to spot
Look for its bright golden-yellow plumage. Listen for its typical vireo song, which is a deliberate, whistled phrase. Scan the mid-story of trees and shrubs, as it moves methodically while foraging.
When to spot
Active year-round in its resident subtropical habitat. Most vocal during the breeding season (spring/summer). Best observed in the early mornings.

Its bright golden plumage makes it one of the most visually distinctive vireos, easily recognizable even in dense foliage.
