      Males and females in eclipse plumage. The males retain the stronger body color and also shows a stronger white band behind the blue wing patch. Here with Least Sandpiper. and Lesser Yellowlegs.

      Female, probably 2cy. Very gray bird. The black spots on the bill indicate the age. Young birds have few as seen here.

      Females. The rear bird looks more golden and with a longer bill giving associations toward Cinnamon. But as far as I recall the bird on photo 812 is the same as the front bird. Here the light is more chilly, which makes me believe that both birds most likely are Blue-winged.

      Female type. Perhaps young birds. Difficult light but it is perceivable that they look strongly marked - contrary of what would be expected of Cinnamon Teals.
