American Golden Plover, Buff-bellied Sandpiper and Pectoral Sandpiper

G'day all

I saw all these on a large playing field today.  Before you get excited it
was in Texas, west of Houston.  Probably 200 AGPs, 10 PSs and 4-6 BbSs.
Also a few Killdeer.

I thought the folks studying the Sydney AGP might be interested in a
couple of photos.

I couldn't get close enough to the BbSs for a pic.

I'm hoping my friends on Texbirds can help with the sparrows.  If anyone
on birding-aus knows wants to have a go 1a and 1b are of the same
individual (female?) and 2a-c is a separate individual (male?).

Texas is great for birds and an interesting experience culturally!
