Confusing Fall Warblers, Texas (1 Viewer)

Fondo

Well-known member
Attached are pictures of 3 different birds, taken on September 28th in Central Texas, US. They birds were all together in a parking lot amidst a large Live Oak and a small grove of Crepe Myrtles. Present in the area in large numbers were Common Yellowthroats and Yellow Warblers. These 3 stood out as different from all the others. Thanks in advance.

1) Yellow Warbler? The bill looks better for Oreothlypis, however. Anymore photos?
2-3 Nashville Warbler
4-5 Common Yellowthroat

Here is the only other usable photo. I am leaning toward Orage-crowned, just hung up on the amount of strong yellow plumage.

Orange-crowned warblers can be entirely yellow. That last picture looks like an OC to me, and agree with other IDs.
