1. Red-eyed Vireo (Green back, white underneath, black line over eye-brow)
2. Least Sandpiper (adult winter plumage, slightly decurved bill, legs look light-coloured, but hard to tell if it's because of mud/algae or actual colour)
3. Dunlin (molting into winter plumage, long decurved bill)
4. Pectoral Sandpiper (yellow legs, streaked breast with sharp line to white belly)

Your awesome, thanks so much. The Dunlin never dawned on me, have only seen them in total winter plumage much darker with not alot of colour.
