Or something else entirely ???
I saw about a dozen of these little fellas on sand flats at low tide, Golden Bay, S.I.
Heavy cropped images but should be good enough for an ID ?? My first thought was banded dotterels but thought it odd there was no adults or even markings on the birds that resembled undeveloped adult markings.
Thanks, Matt
