We got hooked on birdwatching and found there are a lot more birds in Chicago than pigeons, robins, mallards, Canadian Geese, gulls, and sparrows. I started taking pictures of them and ended up with far too many to post on my Chicago Daily Photo site. So I started this separate site just for the birds.
It was this picture of the Red-Eyed Vireo that finally enabled us to identify it. Its red eye is pretty clear in this photo (especially if you enlarge it). And then it was obvious (to us finally) because it was the only bird in the Chicago area with a red eye, dark eye stripe, grayish crown and white body.
