White-eyed Vireo (Vireo griseus bermudianus)

The White-eyed Vireo is commonly known in Bermuda as the 'Chick-of-the-Village'. The Bermudian population of this songbird is an endemic sub-species of the North American White-eyed Vireo. The Bermudian species has shorter wings and is a duller colour than its North American relative.

White-eyed Vireos can be found in woodlands and gardens island-wide. They are tame and curious, allowing birdwatchers close-up views.

The first Protected Species Management Plan for the Bermuda White-eyed Vireo was published in September 2021.
