Shorebird Help

[Lady Tiff]

All seen in the Florida Keys, time of year noted before each group of photos.  I have 2 shorebird books (in addition to my bird app), and I'm still not positive on the ID's. 

Seen in August last year, these are 2 different birds, the larger one I think is a Semipalmated Sandpiper; the smaller one a Least Sandpiper (although I'm not sure if he has yellow legs or not).

Is the bird that's looking up in this picture the same larger one in the first picture, or a different bird altogether??

These were seen in November last year.  I think there are 4 different birds here, all taking an afternoon nap.  I know the largest one is a Willet, and the one with orange legs is the Ruddy Turnstone.

I need help on the smallest ones with the all white belly and the one with a long beak (not the Willet).  I think the long beak one is a Lesser Yellowleg.

The white ones look like Sanderlings.

I’ll let someone else help you out with the rest as I don’t get much shore bird experience inland!

I got lots of views but only one reply, so I'm wondering if people prefer I post the pictures instead of links.

I'll create a second post for the other shorebirds.  THanks!

I can't speak for everyone here, but I would prefer photos loaded with the post, as opposed to links to separate websites. I like to compare comments about the photo/bird to the photo/bird and that's just easier to do if the photo is right there in front of me and not in a separate window/tab. Links to extra photos is probably a good idea if there's an abundance of photos though. Not that I can help with your IDs, but viewing the images is always nice since I usually skip past the links and obviously miss out on a lot of interesting photos.

I'm seeing all Least's (the smaller birds) and Semipalmated Sandpipers (larger birds) except for the last photo, which has a Sanderling on the far left.

[speaking to the question of links / photos, to add to what's already been said, with which i generally agree: I've found that clicking some photo links, on my device, posted to this site, disrupts functionality sometimes. this might occur for others, as well. it's especially lovely, i feel, to add the photos direct, when they are such good photos.]
