Need ID on two birds in Costa Rica (1 Viewer)

You don't say where in Costa Rica this is (and that's important). However, 1) looks like immature sooty thrush (pale eye, buffy streaks and barring, yellow legs) 2) is a loggerhead shrike. This would be a very rare bird for Costa Rica: are you sure the photo is from there? If it definitely is, it'd be worth reporting the sighting—with full details of date, time, place etc of course.
We'd like the sooty thrush image for Opus. Hope that's OK... [I can copy across if you're happy with that]:

I checked the camera data and the picture of the thrush was taken on 6/5/2019 around Parque Nacional Los Quetzales. Feel free to use the picture.
As to the other picture . My sincere apologies but after checking the date I see that my camera dumped some pictures into the folder it used for the Costa Rica trip (some additional ones from a local trip). I thought that looked like a loggerhead shrike but was fooled because it was overexposed so I didn't see the grey on the head and back plus I didn't think they were in Costa Rica.
