St Vincent birds (1 Viewer)

Last week, I saw these birds in a grove of trees near the Mariners Hotel in the south end of St Vincent in the Grenadines.

I was thinking thrush or vireo, but only two species of each are recorded for the island and they don't look like these photos ...

Any ideas would be appreciated.

I think the second one is a House Wren (Troglodytes aedon), according to my West Indies bird guide (Raffaele et al. from 1998).
 
And mine, actually: only hesitated because we have no indication of size (looks "large"), is very bright, and we can't see wing barring. House wren it is!
