Short-billed Dowitcher

Those are all Short-billed Dowitchers. Notice the orangish coloration that doesnt extend as far down as the legs, the spotting/streaking on the flanks, instead of vertical barring. Also, the overall sleek shape, Long-billed Dowitchers look almost like they 'swallowed a grapefruit'! Nice shots.
