Hi all, I have been following the Greater/Lesser Sandplover discussion here, but have not been able to contribute in the last two weeks, because I was travelling overseas and did not have access to my photos from there. Most has been said I think and all what I can add are some photos of the bird in question, which can be found on my website: http://www.fotowarkstee.de/galleries/birds/greater-and-lesser-sandplover/ and a link to what I believe is a valuable source helping with the ID of these difficult to separate birds (at least for me): http://britishbirds.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/article_files/V93/V93_N04/V93_N 04_P162_189_A001.pdf Alfred Alfred Schulte Eutiner Strasse 31 28844 Weyhe Germany Tel: + 49 4203 784078 email: alfred-schulte@gmx.de > —–Urspr
