Most likely a bird with some Blue-winged Warbler genes a few
generations removed.  I had completely forgotten until Carole's
note but the Blue-winged Warbler I had at Seven Islands on the
Knox County Spring Count (29 April) had yellow wingbars.  Otherwise
looked like a male Blue-winged and sang the typical Blue-winged
song.  David Trently, Mike Nelson and Jon Mathson had a "Brewer's"
Warbler on the Knox Spring Count as well.
