After looking at my poor photos of the Townsend's Warbler I posted earlier on 
here, it looks like it may be a hybrid.  I just assumed it was a 
Townsend's/Hermit hybrid, but someone on iNaturalist suggested it looked more 
like a Black-throated Green Warbler/Townsend's hybrid since it had a white 
throat and very little yellow in the breast.  I thought some Townsend's/Hermit 
hybrids had white on the throat, but I don't know.  It also doesn't have yellow 
on the vent area which from what I read all Black-thoated Greens have.  Either 
way it looks mostly like a Townsend's:-)
