These are four birds that I saw on September 22, 2018 at North Bay Park in Ypsilanti, Michigan. Thanks for help in identifying them.

The middle bird -- I assume that pix 2 and 3 are of the same bird (if not, they're certainly of the same species) -- has yellow tail spots, which rule all other warbler species out. In fact, rules out all other US/Canada birds out (if you discount the yellow patches on the rectrices of non-adult-male American Redstarts as tail spots)?
