While not in Madison, we had one on our empty thistle sock a week ago. This
is not out of the ordinary for Neenah though as they do breed here in
"normal" years.

Thanks to all who replied about my Iowa bird.  In case anyone is interested,
the consensus was that it's a fledgling, maybe a warbling vireo given the
white belly and gray above and the sound maybe resembles WV a little.
However maybe it's hard to say given the age and angle of the photo and I
did not see the parent(s).

Also does anyone still have siskins?  I think mine moved on some time in
early June, a little after Mike McDowell reported no longer seeing them at
Pheasant Branch in Middleton.

Can anyone help with this one?  I posted a photo and video.

I was under the bird so didn't get a good look at the top but the sound
should be clear.

White below, gray above, darker wings.  No yellow that I could see.  Very
small bird, about chickadee size but not quite same shape.

Seen in West Branch, Iowa at Herbert Hoover National Historic Site to which
I took a jaunt today.
