Well-known member
Please review my identification of sandpipers, seen May 21, 2018 not far from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

Birds 1 and 2 are marked on the photos. #3 is the last picture.

1) White-rumped Sandpiper - dark legs, reddish base of the bill (not visible very well on this photo), slight streaks on flanks.

2) Semipalmated Sandpiper - smaller, dark legs, shorter bill, thicker at the base.

3) White-rumped Sandpiper too?

Thanks.
