**Putative adult female NYWA in the company of a WEWA, MAWA, and other birds around campsite #59 here (24.66154N, 81.260402W). When this YEWA popped up in response to pishing, my immediate impression was NYWA for the following reasons: very long primary projection that reaches or nearly reaches the tips of the uppertail coverts, small-billed appearance, well-saturated plumage for a female, behavior (nonvocal and somewhat tepid, whereas most MANW I've seen aggressively respond to pishing and are quite tame), and habitat (low dune scrub; MANW will wander out of mangroves into more upland habitat, but this hab here would be classic NYWA wintering habitat elsewhere in the FL peninsula). I believe the morphometrics are probably definitive here for NYWA, especially in the context of other supportive characteristics, but I will do more research before narrowing the ID to species. Pics:
