I have a few shorebirds that I would appreciate your assistance. I have a great deal of difficulty identifying shorebirds because many of them look the same (to me).
Thanks.
CLOSED: Shorebirds - Help ID
#1 - Sanderling
#2 - Ruddy Turnstone
#3 - Sanderlings (pale) and Purple Sandpipers (dark)
#4 - Willet
For the differences between Turnstone and Purple Sandpiper, note the short, straight, all black bill, bright orange legs and white rump of the former, and the longer, slightly curved, yellow-based bill, muddy-yellow legs, and no white rump of the latter. Turnstone is also a bit larger, but that's only obvious when you see the two next to each other.

Thank you, once again, Resin .......
