buntingboy Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I'm pretty sure of the two plovers here, the others not so much. I think the first is a Black Bellied Plover, and the other plover a Piping. The two gulls, I do not know. The one gull was particularly large. One is maybe a Marbled Godwit? The most confusing picture to me is the one with the many birds on the sandbar. Are those Black Bellied Plovers too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avery Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 What about the other three shorebirds in the last photo? I don’t think they’re BBPL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackburnian Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Ummm... I don’t see any Red Knot in the last photo. I see a probable Dunlin and a Dowitcher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with this, I think I was incorrect. There is two more birds I believe are not plover, the first is on the left of the dunlin, and the second is to the right of the dunlin, behind the four plovers.

Tony Leukering Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 The first gull -- the big one -- is a Lesser Black-backed. 1 hour ago, Aidan B said: second is to the right of the dunlin I could see that one being a REKN, but I wouldn't want to ID it as such without at least a little more of the bird visible. The one to the left is, in my mind, even more uncertain, although, again, I could see it being one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
