Field Notes

Description:

I'm gonna leave this one for PN to ID. From what I can see, I would call it a Northern Parula, but i'm not sure. It has a blueish head and neck, yellow through and chest and white belly. The picture didn't turn out very well, as it was too dark. I had to adjust the color and light quite a bit in order get a better look.

Habitat:

Brushy/early growth tree border of marsh

I think you got it right. I'd call it a Parula as well.
