On September 19 roughly around 11 AM, I was at Bill Baggs in the area where the Thick-billed Vireo was reported, and while I wasn't able to see the bird. I remember seeing a warbler in the fruiting trees foraging with a Northern Parula and some Blue-Grey Gnatcatchers until a group of Northern Cardinals came along and pushed the mixed flock away. The warbler had a light breast and stomach area with some streaks, along with a faded out bluish-green for the back and head, wing bars and a white brow. Due to slight dehydration and tired from spending a few hours and miles on Crandon Park, my brain just wrote it off as a Black-throated Blue Warbler, either a female or juvenile male, but now I'm not so sure. Either way, that's how the bird is on my list for now, but in case it is something else, I'd like confirmation from someone here.
