Another old (and bad) set of pics here. Not sure if I identified it at the time - probably - but I have a bunch of woodcreepers on my list for that area.

I'm torn between Cocoa and Long-tailed.

Seems to show features of both...

I seems to me that the mantle has spots which should exclude Long-tailed. I am not positive on what it is, though.

Looks fine for Cocoa

Cocoa. That large, heavy bill rules out all but Cocoa, Barred and Black-banded in Central America.

Keep in mind Long-tailed, while present in the Osa, is quite uncommon.
