Warbling vireo (Vireo gilvus). And yeah, they're about as bad as warblers when it comes to getting a decent look at them. Very nice photos, BTW!
 
Katy is right. Both the Clement's and the Howard & Moore have not yet split this subspecies, which for them is swainsonii. For the purpose of the database on BF, this should be named Western Warbling-Vireo (Vireo swainsonii) as the Sibley-Monroe has split this from gilvus.
