I have become a bit of a shut-in over the years. But that looks like fun.

The plovers do look similar. The only difference I can see between the Piping and the Snowy is the red vs greyish legs. The Wilson’s Plover does not have that black patch on its forehead. Though a cursory scan of plovers on the web shows some pics without.

Funny yellow and black bands on that first one’s legs. Some kind of tag?

Very cool. Thank you for posting surfered.
