Looks like you grouped them right. I think they are all Plovers. Some have a little wider ring around the neck than others.

Thank you for the ID, I thought these were all the same birds but photo 4 looks like it has 2 rings around its neck? I may have thrown all the photo's together because I thought these were similar birds? What do you think?

Sorry looks like I misidentified this one. I took another look and it's a Plover. Very similar but Killdeer has two rings on it's neck and the Plover only one.
