From the location of the bird (not on a thick trunk, but thin twig) I think it's not likely to be a Blyth's leaf Warbler.   The rotund shape, along with the strong wingbar (the second might be obscured) may suggest Pallas' rather than Yellow-browed or Eastern Crowned. If it did hover, then going for Pallas' wouldn't be too bad if the light conditions continued to be as displayed.
