This pic from Dowse Lagoon, Sandgate, Qld on 26/1/13.
I have ID'd as a Sharp-tailed Sandpiper - confirm or disagree please
The legs look a bit too bright but I confirm it as a Sharp tailed Sandpiper.

i'm not very good with these but i reckon the slightly shorter beak sets it apart from other sandpipers confirms it for me.
What about a sanderling?
Cheers Beef.
No, I dón't think its a Sanderling.
