This is a Palm Warbler Adult- Winter Brown. There are 10s of Thousands of these birds that migrate to Florida every Winter. They head to Canada in the summer and start nesting. I have photographed hundreds of these birds.

Except for the tail you may be correct. The Hermit Thrush supposedly has a reddish tail. This bird's tail is more yellow. The warbler's head markings are semi-different from the thrush. Too many parts, too few birds. 
That's a tough one--but think LessN2 may be close, The National Audubon Society Field Guide to Birds, pictures a Northern Water Thrush which doesn't seem to come near your area and also a Louisiana Water Thrush which is closer to you and both have that distinctive white stripe above their eye. If you happen to have this book it's picture number is 440 and it's description is on page 681.
