Hi. Is this is a Swainson's thrush? I couldn't rule out Hermit so grateful for any advice.

Looking at the tail in the second pic, I's say Hermits

Tail looks to me to be about the same color as the back; it should be distinctly more reddish on a Hermit. The bird does have a distinct buffy eyering, so I have to go with Swainson's Thrush.
