Silent while I was observing. Moved through the oaks to a tiny toyon bush where it fed in a few berries before being flushed by a group of students. Initial impressions of the bird was a warbler with dull green mantle and gave me a light OCWA, but the bill was very small and noted the eyebrows. Upon binoculars, it looked like it had a light vent. Quickly grabbed the camera for excellent photos. Very short tail, thin light supercillium, white spot on primaries. Got corrected from a TEWA from discord. Lifer!! Photos to come”
