Cleaning up my database after losing a few labels, here are some birds from Coba ruins:

Bird 3 - is it an Olivaceous Woodcreeper?
Bird 4 - is it a Dusky Antbird
Bird 5 is actually from the Jardin Botanico Dr. Alfredo Barrera (south of Puerto Morelos)

Thanks all - armed with your IDs its now easy to confirm the details in Howell and Webb and on IBC.

I had actually run through all the pictures of woodcreepers in Howell and Webb, but none of them showed the really bushy face. However, the descriptive text for Ruddy Woodcreeper and Tawny-winged Woodcreeper is clear - "often together at ant swarms" which is exactly what was happening on the ground beside one of the Coba ruins.

Couple more from Coba to ID in next post.
