Cesar,
You very admirably reiterated "THE LAW OF INDIRECT OBSERVATION".
See the "universal laws of birding" on the Queens county Bird Club's
web page.

and FWIW on first sight I thought MGWA too...

Ok, great to learn so much on a more familiar species.
Thanks for all the help and clarification!
I learned more about Orange-crowned Warblers in this
one week when I thought it might be a MGWA, than in all
the years I have been seeing them with no doubt in my mind
as to what they were. Ironic.

Una tarde la princesa vio una estrella aparecer; la princesa era traviesa y la quiso ir a coger.
La quería para hacerla decorar un prendedor, con un verso y una perla, una pluma y una flor.
Las princesas primorosas se parecen mucho a ti; cortan lirios, cortan rosas, cortan astros. Son así.

Hi Cesar,
Thanks for sharing the photos.
Interesting bird. When I saw the photos I
thought OCWA, because of the structure and overall
feeling I got.
Great find and save for your CBC Count.

Dear All,
I have posted the original images
on flicker. I have not messed with
the photos except in increasing their
sharpness. I can see how this could
be an orange-crowned warbler, however
I remember seeing a grey hood that
extended quite a bit, Carry Laben and
I immediately thought Mourning W until
we looked at the photos and thought
MacGillivray's. Memory is fickle
though when it comes to details, I
don't tend to just trust mine without
evidence. The hood, if it is real is
most notable in the 2nd and 7th link
below.
Thank you all, it's too bad no one
else has been able to see it. I
attempted to find it on Monday
morning, but there was active
construction in the location where it
was found, and most of the snow in the
park had melted, giving this bird and
all the other birds found in the same
spot ample opportunity to find food
elsewhere.
