Hi, I have a few photos from Bolivar Peninsula when I was out there for spring migration. You will need to zoom in on these, I didn\'t crop. A couple of these birds are difficult for me to ID. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Here are my thoughts
#1 I think is a sanderling or black bellied plover in winter plumage

#2 I was thinking the one in the middle is a piping plover but not sure about the one on the left

#3 Sanderling? Black bellied plover? Western sandpiper?

#4 is the one in the middle (the one most in focus) semipalmated plover? Then the one in front on the right at the bottom (and is out of focus) - looks like a dunlin? On the very right edge toward the middle of the pic there is another out of focus larger bird, maybe a marbled godwit?

#5 Maybe a willet?
