Thanks Jellis!

I am leaning to Gray-cheeked. Swainson's have not been reported on the island and the Hermit color is not there.

Thanks Ashley! I uploaded a short video of it calling and one more photo (though a bit blurry) if that helps at all.

Either gray-cheeked, swainson's, or hermit thrush. Hermit is different by having a reddish tail, which I can't really tell if this guy has or not. They are all so similar to each other, hopefully someone can help you with which one it is!
