I admit I was agreeing with Steve and writing Bay-breasted because of
the buffy flanks, yellowish eye strip and back.  After looking at it
more, I can't get past the yellow feet.  I'm going with Immature
Blackpoll.  I compared it to an image I took a while back of a fall
Bay-breasted and read three different fall descriptions.  Nothing I
can find mentions yellow soles on the Bay-breasted.  Here's my bad
photo for comparison.

No matter how this turns out it's a great quiz bird.
