I found this bird in Progreso, Yucatán, México, does anyone know the species’ name? (1 Viewer)

[Leo Santisteban]

I found this bird in a mangrove located in Progreso, Yucatán, México. It was about 10cm long (4 in). I’ve posted it on iNaturalist and tried using the Merlin app but I still can’t find its name, so I was looking for help here. I also tried looking up its description on Google but I still didn’t find anything. Does anyone know what species it is?

PS I know it’s a bad photo, but it was in a very thick/dark bush and this was the only in-focus photo I could get from it.

Far more useful and reliable than any of the things you've tried is a field guide. It's a yellow warbler - the mangrove form.

Or as IOC call it, Mangrove Warbler
