A cute little bird I "bump" into while on a camping trip in Algonquin park past weekend. Never seen one before so this is a first for me.

Very cute bird indeed, and you did a fantastic job capturing it. I've never seen one before. Nice job Tom.

Great picture - unfortunately, one really needs to hear the Veery to apperciate it's true beauty.

I agree on both counts. My wife and I call the Veery the "Price is Right" bird because it's call is a desccending trill reminiscent of one of the TV Show's background melodies. C'mon down!

Here's another who agrees with this! Nice shots of a species I only ever see deep in the very shaded woods...
