Cozumel (1 Viewer)

Help required in identifying 3 birds seen last week in Cozumel Mexico. All photos were taken at San Gervasio Mayan ruins in central Cozumel. The first photo I thought was a vireo, but does not match any images in books. The second a probable American warbler is not a great picture, and bird had flown after taking picture, so no other information.The third picture although not great showed striking yellow above eyes and on throat which should make identification easy, but could find nothing similar in guidebook I have. (Howell & Webb - Birds of Mexico and N. Central America). Thanks for any help you can give.

I think the first is a Magnolia Warbler.

Thanks , yes definitely grassquit, don't know how I missed that. Not sure about Cape May warbler - wing bars not right. Thought possibly Magnolia warbler.

1. Magnolia Warbler - two evenly distinct wing bars vs one, thicker upper wingbar (on median coverts) of male Cape May
2. American Redstart
3. Yellow-faced Grassquit

Agree with Avery. Magnolia, Am. Redstart female, Yellow-faced Grassquit
