Sounds in Eilat IBRCE lakes at dusk (1 Viewer)

Hello,

Could you help me identify these voices, please?

Recorded at the IBRCE salt lakes, Eilat (Israel) on 21 March 2023, at dusk.

Lichtenstein's Sandgrouse (Pterocles lichtensteinii) is suspected but I'm not sure, these voices sound a little bit higher pitched than the ones on xeno-canto.
A few other birds are present in the background: Black-winged Stilts (0:14-0:25) and Redshanks (here and there, almost inaudable).

Another mystery is a duck-like quacking sound at the end of the recording (0:38-0:45).

Many thanks in advance,
Laci
