This one is hard to pick out amid the jungle foliage but I'll show it anyway because it's among the rarest of woodpeckers, only about 300 known to exist.

Ira, I think this is a Hairy Woodpecker, mainly because of the large bill and unmarked white outer tail feathers. Probably a juvenile because of the crown (red but looks yellow?) being forward.
Very nice pictures!
