I believe my mystery bird will have to remain an unidentified species. I
received a number of good suggestions, but none completely fit the bird I
observed. Thanks to all who responded and made me aware of the fact that I
could have initially provided a more complete description of the bird. One
good suggestion  was Pastor Al Schirmacher's suggestion of a Pine Warbler.
When I checked I could see that the first year bird was close, but with no
supercilium. The other close suggestion was an Arctic Warbler from Tom Bell;
however, I do not think the primaries extended that far and the supercilium
was not that distinct. Other than that, it seems to be a perfect match. The
wing bars were certainly a perfect match.

I can live with not knowing what it was.
