I never got to see the front of this bird and was wondering if anyone had any idea of what it might be.?

Definitely a Hermit, a second year Hermit. If you look at the three small white tips to the secondary coverts that indicates (at this time of year) that the bird was hatched last spring. Those white tips will wear off by summer of this year.

Okay...I am so jealous now...been trying to get a confirmed photo of the Hermit for 2 years!

Great catch!
