fron pickering area.
i,d like to thank thomas for all his help in identifying these shorebirds for me.
here,s another thomas, the last one,which i think is a dunlin. please correct me if i,m wrong.
you,ll have to excuse the image quality,as these are large crops.

I think that last one might be a Stilt Sandpiper.

Nice shots Denis!

There's the juvenile Long-billed Dowitcher! Nice catching both Dowitchers.

And I agree with Mark on the last picture, Stilt Sandpiper.
