Hi Steve,
yes u are correct in that all these birds are indeed sandpipers...
sp 1 - is a juvenile Sharp-tailed SP - note the warm rosy-buff wadsh over
breast & dark bright chestnut cap...
sp 2 - these are Sharp-tailed SP's again but look like older birds with less
warm tones washed over breast & cap.
hope this helps u out,, cheers,
martin cachard, cairns
