Plover/Sandpiper blurryness, Sardinia (1 Viewer)

Hi all

Among the first 3 pictures with the Ringed Plover, I'm wondering if that's a Sandpiper of some sort?

On the last picture, am I mistaken in thinking that the plover in flying position could be a Kentish Plover?

Unfortunately the pictures are somewhat blurry so any ID may be a longshot.

Thanks anyways

Matt

Your sandpiper is giving off little stint vibes. Your flying plover is a Ringed Plover, but the bird to the left of the stint in the 1st pic 2 pics could be Kentish as could the tiny two in the pic where the RP is flying. Had to be certain though
