Could be! Or not 🙂

This picture shows no white at all on orange crowned tail or coverts

What is this photo? The bird in the OP's video? or an unrelated photo of an orange-crowned warbler posted purely in order to illustrate that species' plumage?

Oh. That makes things confusing: people won't be continually reading back through the thread to see if others have edited their posts.

Sorry! When I deleted, nobody had replied to my post, so I figured it was ok to edit without saying that I had done so. I'll be more careful with any future edits.

An unrelated photo of an orange-crowned warbler. Sorry, I guess I should have specified

Shot a short long distance vid of the warbler on 1 May in Corpus Christi, Tx. in the early morning from inside the house. Would like help on ID. Thanks for your responses.

I guess my opinion is it's likely a Tennessee, because of timing (late for Orange-crowned) and the white visible in the vicinity of the tail

white visible in the vicinity of the tail

True, of course . . . Tennessee warbler is the one of the two that has white in the undertail area (tail or coverts) - orange-crowned warbler doesn't.

I get a strong Tennessee feel from the video. I think the overall pale color underneath is part of what's taking me in that direction.

Where exactly? You don't have to answer if you don't want to, I'm just interested.
