Wedge-Billed Woodcreeper

On March 18, 2022 I visited the Mashpi Amagusa Reserve, in the Mashpi-Pachijal IBA, near Mindo in Ecuador. One of the most significant mornings of birding and wildlife observation in my life. I got a partial photograph of a wedge-billed woodcreeper, partially hiding on a tree. My guide identified it and I've submitted it to iNaturalist, but no identifiers have corroborated it. But the distinctive tail, along with my guide and iNaturalist, makes me feel pretty confident about the identification.

Range from Birds of the World. 

There are 13 subspecies and geographic variation in plumage and vocalizations is considerable. I do not know which ssp. I saw, I don't have a photo of the entire bird, and there were not illustrations of all ssps. So I just picked the one that looked the closest to my photo.
