    Default Warbling Vireo?

    Taken last week at Magee Marsh, Ohio.

    I am thinking that these are all the same species, but they appear to have different shapes, and more, or less, yellow wash in the pictures which is making me doubt that they are all Warbling Vireos.
    (images are numbered, but not in continuous sequence)

    What do you think?

    Looks like a Warbling Vireos to me, all except #4, which I think is a female Black-thoated Blue Warbler.

    I would tend to agree with Dan's assessment. The face look rules out Philadelphia Vireo in 6, 2 and 3. 4 is the odd-man out- note the grey face and upper breast colouration.

    Thanks. The shot of #4 is not a keeper, but the only one I got of that bird and I was curious about it.
