Thanks, Joe. Without having examined your photos closely I'd say it looks like
the same three birds, and the Hudsonian is the same one people have told me is
the most likely bird, the one with the more strongly demarcated bib.
On rechecking my photos, I found one showing that bird to have a black tail.
Where and when were those photos taken?

Hi Peter,
It was just before 11:30 on Monday the 8th of June, Queens birthday.
I'd been looking for a little while and then saw them on the other side
of some water on the edge of a large sand bar. This was all on the
south side of the entrance of the Laverton river. I sat for about half
an hour getting a wet bum hoping that I'd see the tell tail under wing
pattern and I'd given up, I got up to leave and thought I'd grab a
couple more shots and then it just stretched. A nice surprise.
Cheers,
Joe
