Darren Clark--Accept

This can be a confusing bird, but Cliff mentions all of the important field marks and safely eliminates similar species.

Streaked mantle and white undertail coverts diagnostic.

The two wing bars, white under tail coverts, short tail, and general color convince me.

Doug Ward--Accept

Although compared with both Pine (Dendroica pinus) and Bay-breasted (D. castanea) Warblers, this identification can be pretty tough in the Fall. While the report is brief, the observer notes enough of the critical field marks, particularly the olive back coloration and white undertail coverts, to give me enough confidence to accept.

Carlisle--Accept

Good, careful description (foot color would be helpful too, if seen).
