I shot this in Texas a few weeks ago. I checked the Sibley guide and the Prarie Warbler
was the closest match I could see. If someone differs from the iD please let me know.

Dave, good alert pose with the semi cocked tail, and I like how he is perched against the lighter BG. Light and colours look good, and would maybe add a bit more space on the left.
Dave, excellent bird angle and alert pose. Nice BG as well. I'd also vote for some more room in front of the bird....and probably abit on top and tad crop from bottom.
Wow, not a Prarie Warbler as you now know, but a Chat in the open is a great opportunity and hard to find. You have a real gem here. It could use a bit more space on the left to get him out of center.
