I am having a hard time iding this woodcreeper I saw in Mamirua reserve Amazonas Brasil. It could be a a long-billed, strong-billed straight-billerd or black-banded I posted the pictures to the galley under South America Woodcreeper

Hi Sarah

I hope it's okay with you but I've gone ahead and added the link to your photos to your post so the I D geniuses don't have to search

It is probably a Straight-billed Woodcreeper or, less probably, the very similar Zimmer's Woodcreeper. Certainly not Long-billed, which is quite large and unmistakable. Strong-billed is another massive beast with bigger and lightly curved darker bill and buffy stripes on sides of head, not as whitish as in the bird of the photo. Black-banded is somewhat similar to Strong-billed but a bit smaller and with a shorter and straighter dark bill.
