More Wader Difficulties

Hi Everyone,

In this photo, there are 5 waders.

The top bird looks a bit like a Curlew Sandpiper if I am not wrong?

The 4 birds resting together (below the top bird) I don't know either, the two on the left side look a bit like some type of Sandpiper.

Your help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Curtis

The back bird is a Curlew Sandpiper, the two birds on the bottom left are both Sharpies, and I am confident in saying that the two behind the sharppies are Red Knots.

Where were these seen? Location is important for wader ID's.

Cheers, Owen.

Thanks Owen!

These were taken near Ballina, NSW.
