Thank you all. The short tail had me leaning to N. Waterthrush, but i respect
your thoughts.

I agree that it's a Catharus thrush, with Swainson's being probably the best
guess.
(and thanks for the unsplit link!)
Best birding,

Hi, Charles.
I hope that I don't lead us down the wrong path, since I am far from an expert
on this, but one of the first things that I notice is that it appears that the
bird has spectacles rather than an eyebrow. So I would probably first be
thinking about something like a Swainson's thrush. But that's just a
suggestion.
The URL provided is split, so that it doesn't go directly to the videos. Here
is (hopefully) the unsplit link:

Subject: [TN-Bird] Motion Camera Mystery Bird
Could someone identify the smaller bird in these videos for me, please? I
didn't see the bird, as it was captured by my motion triggered camera around
sunset September 20. Short tail, striping in throat. Note the Robin in the
videos for size comparison. I'm thinking Northern Waterthrush or ???? Link
to three 10-second videos is:
