Thanks Liam. Can they show those white throats and wing bars?
Thanks Liam - that's were my thoughts were going.
Sorry, unfortunately no other angle. The birds just sat right above me and then disappeared.
Appreciate your help, Liam and ForestDragon!
Looks pretty good :-) Thanks Liam!
The pink bill makes me go for Field Sparrow. Thanks Liam and RyanWarner.
Eye ring (hard to see on the photo) and rather brownish than greyish makes it more a Solitary Sandpiper even though it wasn't alone.
They are already pretty cropped - sorry. I thought maybe Pectoral, too.
Did you see how its beak is open in the first photo. Does every Sandpiper do that?
I checked my book again and came to the same conclusion :-) Thanks
