I'm not 100% convinced about these. Anyone else have thoughts.

Thanks for the suggestion, I had gone with red-necked avocets because of the general colours and patterns, although all photos are overexposed and because of this the 'white' could be grey and the red 'brown', in which case the birds would be wood ducks.
