Magic Hedge Warblers (5/29/9)

We went back to the magic hedge (I love it there!) because I was determined to get better pics of the Canada Warbler & I ended up finding some new ones (new for me). I still have to really look in the guide to help me, but it is fun to try & figure it out...
We saw several: Canada's, Redstart's (M&F), Magnolia's, Wilson's, Mourning's, & Yellow's. We also saw (what I believe) are vireos/flycatchers, an ovenbird, a hermit thrush, an oriole, a song sparrow (I think) & a bird that flew by so quickly that I didn't get a pic. It was about the size of a starling & looked to have a mostly yellow body & black head. For some reason a lot of these pics had to be lightened, & a few are very blurry. They are in no particular order, I tried, but there are too many...
