Please may i request advice on the attached bird if possible (2 pics of same bird). I thought presumably a warbler of some kind; but I am not certain.
I hope asking questions about birds seen on live bird feeder cams is not against policy. If it is, please feel free to delete this post.

Bird appears to be a female Pine Warbler. Notice the sharply pointed bill typical of a warbler, along with the prominent 2 white wing bars. The split eye ring is also a helpful feature to ID this species. This is a fairly dully marked individual, without any prominent yellow.
Other photos of the female Pine Warbler can be seen here on eBird: Pine Warbler - Setophaga pinus - Media Search - Macaulay Library and eBird

Pine Warblers, unlike many other warblers, will sometimes show up to bird feeders.

Thank you so much for this: I was stumped with this. Although I have no experience of New World warblers I tried looking at books and other online resources without success. I take note of the 2 prominent white wingbars and the split eyering you refer to, and note there is similarity with some of the images in the website you kindly provided a link to. I can see much variation within the species so that clinches it for me LOL.
