The first bird is a black-throated green warbled, the second I can't make my mind: Bay-breasted or Blackpoll warbler...

I'm leaning towards either 1st winter juvi or female winter plumage Blackpoll. But im still unsure. I see white undertail, and the yellow doesnt go down the breast very far, which would lean me towards Blackpoll. However it doesnt look to have any streaks and is a more green-yellow than gray neck, which would lean me towards Bay-breasted. Wings bars look white, not yellowish, so that leans me toward Bay-breasted. Tail pattern, faint eyering, and black streak through eye are indiscernable between the two in first winter plumage.

On the first photo, I did notice yellow feet upon looking again, which isnt a field mark of any Black-throated I can find. However, it is for Blackpoll. Everything else is good for Black-throated though
