Can you identify this bird for us? It was seen early this morning in a park by the Scarborough Bluffs.

Yellow throat without eye-ring suggests a Common Yellowthroat ... immature male, or Parula, but probably the former.

That sure looks like the same bird! We've seen him several mornings in a row, but he quickly disappears into the low-lying foliage. Thank you!
