Here's one more WP from Belize. Unlike the depiction in Sibley, this one is a female of the "leei" race of Golden-fronted, according to my Birds of Mexico and Central America (Van Perlo). It is almost indistinguishable from our Red-bellied, except for the all-white rump. After a number of rainy days on our trip, the early-morning tropical light was getting pretty harsh by the time we spotted this lass. C&C appreciated.
