This bird was seen on Disney's private island, Castaway Cay, in the Bahamas.

Sorry photos are so bad.

One more...

I'm pretty sure this is a female Black-faced Grassquit.

Wow 100 views and no one to venture an ID.

I believe the first bird is a Palm Warbler.

Still seeking confirmation or an ID on the 2nd bird.
 
Regarding no 2, I have never seen Cuban Grassquit which should be an option for at least part of the Bahamas. If BF, not a regular female as I know them from the eastern Caribbean, but could be a young male -- but different subspecies means I might be wrong on that.

Re no 1, a first winter blackburnian looks better than palm I feel. When was it seen? Should mainly be present during migration.
