I was walking on Sunday Beach (a barrier island) near Port O'Connor Texas this morning and I came across this dead bird. I will post several pics. I think it might be a Chestnut-sided Warbler, who didn't quite make it through the migration, but I would like to get some other opinions. Note the white belly and outer tail feathers, yellow crown & back and chestnut on the sides. I estimate that it is between 4-5 inches in length.
