Ed,

I doubt many people are checking the postings here any more but I happened to see your question so thought I would respond in case no one else has.

It is much too early in the spring for warblers except for a few yellow-rumpeds. Check your field guide for golden-crowend kinglet to see if that's the bird you saw. If not, I am out of ideas.

Good luck and good birding.
