I'd agree with 1 - 4, but suggest another Palm for 5

I am feeling guilty for asking so many questions, but I am really puzzled and not confident with identifying them by myself with a field guide only. There are so many warblers and variations make them look so similar. This is the last batch, I promise!
 
Hmm...yellow warbler has an eye ring but that seems quite distinct and too brightly white for me. Only Virginia's and Nashville tend to have an eye ring like that. I've seen photographic conditions that highlight a yellow warbler's eye ring but even accounting for that the rest of the bird doesn't feel right. The bill is also a little on the long side, in favour of Nashville.

The apparent grey hood bothers me as well. It isn't lighting because you can see contrast between that and the yellow underparts. So I'm pushing Nashville at the moment.

I was also thinking this, but far from sure with this pic.
