Looks like a Hermit Thrush. I'm seeing some red on the tail and an Ovenbird would have a stripe on the crown

You've actually got yourself a Hermit Thrush - an Ovenbird would be more of an olive green on the back, where this bird is reddish brown, and would have a red stripe bordered in black running along the top of the head.

Edit: Whoops, BillyPilgrim beat me to it.
