Observation details

First ID as a possible White-bearded Hermit, but the photo was ID by Roger Ahlman as SBT Phaethornis bourcieri because bill and rump. Bill seems slightly decurved but not much. The rump colour seems a better feature and it fits better with Straight-billed. First sight by Rio Bigal list.
