In Jamaica this past weekend, for a family wedding, managed to go to Rocklands Bird Sanctuary for a little birding ,and some birding around the Round Hill Resort. Unable to identify these little guys. Help!

Hi -

Can't help you with the two little grey jobs in the middle, but the first one is a Banaquit, and the fourth is a Yellow-throated Warbler.
 
Thank you both for the IDs. The blue head of the Banaquit threw me off, the other Banaquits I saw had blackish not blue on the head.
 
Hey NAL
The throat of the Jamaican race of Bananaquit is grey (whereas other ssp are yellow, white or black). The blueish hue is more of a photographic artefact
