Wading Birds

Help needed with these please. My guess is either Sharp-tailed or Pectoral Sandpipers, but so many

waders look alike - to me anyway.

Can't see your photo, is it just me, or did you forget something Des?

First thought would be Sharp-tailed, but I am not experienced when it comes to waders.

I'll second the Sharp-tailed Sandpiper, as they have a shorter beak than the Pectoral Sandpipersmiley

Beautiful shot by the wayyes

Agree with sharp-tailed sandpipers :)

Thanks for your help everyone. Certainly the consensus seems to be Sharp-tailed Sandpipers, so that is what they will be called!
