I had a brief encounter with this sandpiper earlier today while birding a local wildlife flooding. Unfortunately the bird was distant and I was unprepared, but I fired off a few shots. The photos have been cropped with only a slight increase in overall exposure. I have an idea of what this sandpiper might be, but my lack of experience with sandpipers means I'll surely benefit from some help. Any ID pointers on these flight shots would be much apprecieated. Thanks
