Comparing stilt and avocet chicks pastel drawing (himantopus mexicanus)

I am new to birdlife and fledgling bird artist, and have a wonderful park called Shollenberger nearby where these two species are nesting, the chicks are in different places, I wanted to see how they compared, hope you can tell the difference.
