rescued...

Yesterday, right before I went outside to take photos of the monarchs I heard a bird crash into the patio door. I looked out and didn't see anything so grabbed my camera to go look for monarchs. As soon as I opened the door Hershey came running and suddenly stopped as if to pick up something...it was this little bird and so I called Hershey off before it became a "scooby snack". I picked it up and set it on our grill top and took it's photo (notice it has a hair in it's beak?) then called Hershey to come look for monarchs with me (she was still interested in having a snack) - when we left it was just sitting still with it's eyes closed. I checked back in a few minutes and it still was resting.
After I found the tree with all the monarchs I spent some time taking photos and then remembered the little bird - it was about 10 minutes later and it was now awake and looking around.
He stayed put while I took some photos so I shot away...


I even got a close up of the hair stuck in it's beak...

before he had enough and squawked at me...
and then gave me the cold shoulder.
I left for just a few minutes to take more monarch photos and when I returned he was gone - a happy ending for this little bird who I looked up and it appears to be a red-eyed vireo. The eyes appeared more brown than red to me so according to the description at the All About Birds link it could be an immature one.
