All taken on 9-17-12 in southern New Jersey just outside of Philadelphia PA.

1. My guess is Northern Parula?




2. I've got no idea on this one.



3. Another one I'm not sure on.


4. Last one, I know the photo is blurry and the head is partially obscured but I thought I'd give it a shot and see what you all come up with.


Thanks again as always.

Not saying for the thrush, but I agree with the rest. Your White-eyed Vireo is a juvenile, so the eyes are more blue-gray.

Based on behavior, it could also be confused with the similar Kangaroo Vireo.

You just made my day!

I have been searching for the rare and elusive Kangaroo Vireo forever, I hope one day to see it for myself.

Excellent, I can add the Kangaroo Vireo to my life list, haha. Thanks everyone.
