Flocks of sandpipers

These ones are dowitchers (as pointed out by JTF), but still a type of sandpiper

The first two shot's I am leaning towards Dowitchers due the white band above the eye.

Really makes a great shot Trevor, very cool

I think you are right, thanks.

Great flight shots Trevor.

Nice flock captures.

Nice catch.

Cool shots.

Thanks guys

Interesting study of flocking shorebirds Trevor.
My favorite, as you might know, is the backlit image. The light through the wings is a beautiful highlight for the rest of the underexposed body.

Lovely shots Trevor, really like the against the light one.

Great captures, Trevor. It's amazing there aren't some mid-air collisions, isn't it?

(Thanks for the comments on my "Just going for it" thread. Thought it had run its course and hadn't checked for awhile. Didn't want to send it back to the top.)
