Cliff Weisse -- Accept

Although the description does not mention the color of the edges of the outer rectrices all other important field marks are included in the description and the observer has extensive experience with Cassin's and Blue-headed Vireos.

Even though by a single observer and no pictures were taken, the description of the contrasting head color, white throat, and greenish-yellow back were adequate to separate it from a Cassin's Vireo (for me).
