Observation details

Contrasty front of this warbler: black or dark brown streaks/spots over breast and belly, but streaking stops at white throat. Dark moustachial stripe, olive face, white eye ring. Uniformly olive over posterior head, as well as at back, wings, rump, tail. Black crown stripes with a hint of orange at center crown. Walking on ground feeding, nabbed a cricket amongst pine needles. Not very shy - almost like he was on a mission to eat well before dusk. At first thought was HETH; but smaller, posture more horizontal as he walked and foraged, and much more contrasty breast & belly, and no rufous in tail. Seen just off the Blue Trail, west of the Equalization Pond. See really bad iPhone photos.
