Need help IDing this bird

Top Merlin ID pick is Black Throated Blue Warbler. My photo really doesn't look anything like the photos they show.

A friend said it's an immature female Black Throated Blue Warbler.

It was taken on March 25 at Loxahatchee Wildlife Refuge in Boynton Beach FL

Black-throated Blue is correct.
