Thanks for the correction, Liam. I'll make some changes... I love taking pictures but in reality I'm pretty blind :D This is one of the reasons why I joined Project Noah - for ID help from avifauna experts like you.

Photos 1 and 2 show Ruff (Philomachus pugnax) and 3 and 4 show a Marsh Sandpiper (Tringa stagnatilis). At least I'm pretty sure...
