Hi.
Looking for a bit of help with these few Warblers/Flycatcher please. All taken in Arenal and Manuel Antonio areas.
I think........
1. Mourning Warbler?
2. Tennessee Warbler?
3. Yellow-bellied OR Yellowish Flycatcher?
4. Possibly Tennessee in breeding plumage?
5. Wilson's Warbler?

Thanks for looking.

Shane

1. Mourning Warbler
2. Tennessee Warbler
3. Not Yellow-bellied, the wing bars are much too dull. It seems to be a match for Yellowish but I have no knowledge of Central American flycatchers.
4. Doesn't look like any US bird I'm familiar with
5. Wilson's Warbler
 
Agree with Querty on 1, 2, 5 dunno for the rest.

Would recommend not "enhancing" photos with AI since it can obscure things present and bring out/create things that are not. For example, the flycatcher's whiskers and the area below the eye on #4 both look weird.
 
Thanks for looking and for the advice. I do have the original shots so may post them to see if that helps, it was very dark and noisy, hence the denoise, which I am new to. 🤦‍♂️
