Warbler ID PLX (Eastern crowned, Artic, Pale legged leaf)

Is it Eastern Crowned Warbler? My identification is according to its very clean lower part and the sharp green upper part, as well as the long, thick and orange bill.

I initially thing that it is an Artic Warbler(unclear wing bar), but its leg is quite pink to me. Is it the individual variation of Artic warbler? Or It is really a Pale legged warbler?

Due to its orange leg, long and thick bill with black tip, and relatively unclean of the breast part I think I would be an Artic warbler

I would agree with you, Eastern-crowned, Pale-legged (or Sakhalin) and Arctic in that order.

Thanks Fai gou and Paul vary much!
I could not imagine that the pale-legged warbler would appear in urban park before...
May be I just had no chance to approch one before=]
Thank you very much
