This looks like a Prong-billed Barbet to me, the beak is much too large for a tanager, very nice shot with the rain.

Nate:
Thanks very much and I agree with you after looking closely at both birds.  I was going by what the guide in Costa Rica said it was and did not question same.  Appreciate the help.
Jake

Definitely a prong-billed barbet. Nice shot, Jake!
