Thanks for the help with the ID... These were the first Surfbirds I've ever seen (and only 2nd time ever seeing Black Turnstones). I'll leave your comment up for others to see :)

I think you've got all Surfbirds flying, although there is one Black Turnstone on the right side of the rock. Turnstones have a nice white central patch / stripe on the back that makes them easy to sort when they fly.
