Looking for help with these please, I live inland and am really bad at seabirds / water birds!
All taken in the 2nd week of September
1+2: the black circle behind the eye got me stumped.
3. The bird on the left, on mudflats; looked to be about thrush size. Teal on the right?
This was a day of wild rainy weather near the coast; there were big flocks of birds being blown around the sky, many of which I couldn´t identify.
4. Alone and at long distance from the shore, diving for food. Black Scoter?
5-7: Sanderling, or Little Stint?
8. Juvenile Wagtail? There were many Pied Wagtails on the shore, also many Yellow Wagtails in the fields behind the coastline.
All photos cropped but otherwise unedited - many thanks in advance!
