I am a bit warbler-challenged but will try anyway...
Is this perhaps a Nashville Warbler?

Nashville is a good guess but note that the eye ring is broken and the dark streak between eye and beak.  This is an Orange-crowned Warbler.

Thank you both very much.  I hope to improve my own abilities to I.D. birds, but it's going to be a challenge!
