Again from Florida

Black-bellied Plover and Willet.

If you could make the images smaller it would be great.

I can't see the image.  It's too big.

Same here. I had to save a copy in order to view it.

Try this, zoom out your browser...for example if it is at 100% by default, zoom it out to 50% or even less (I needed to go down to 25%)...the text will be unreadably small but the birds will then appear in the images.

[Kevin H.]

I'll post them smaller

[gary yankech]

Nice pictures, now that I can see them!
The first is a juvenile Black-bellied Plover.
Second, not so sure, maybe Willet?

....the second might be a Western Willet.

[Walter Fisher]

Thanks harleydog8 for shrinking your photos down, much better now.

The second is a Willet not leaning Western. Geography being a Florida and the Western is usually less bulky.

[John]

Western Willet is found in Florida.

[Canoncan]

That is true I stand corrected

[Reuven_M]

In fact any Willet in the winter in Florida will be a Western - Eastern Winters much further south.

It pays to know not only the physical features of birds but also other factors like migration, way to go Reuven!
