[Maine-birds] Great day at Fuller Farm - need help with an ID

Had a great morning out at Fuller Farm in Scarborough. Highlights included a m/f SCARLET TANAGER pair, BLACK-THROATED BLUE warbler down below the canopy singing, and a very vocal WOOD THRUSH and HOUSE WREN. My full list can be found here:

Had one mystery bird, looks to be a Vireo of some sort. Any help with and ID would be wonderful - wasnt singing at all, so all I have to go on are these (rather bad) images.

The closest thing I have found was a Bell's Vireo, but I am very hesitant to report as such since it would mean he was pretty lost. Positive double white wing bar, one much more prominent than the other. White eye ring, dark eye. Light yellow underneath (this is tougher to tell in the images).

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, and happy birding.
