Rare; smaller bodied & billed than nearby Black-bellied, distinct cap and darker golden backed, erect posture...attaching poor quality photo (taken with dinky point-and shoot) - golden plover is 16 birds from the left (3rd bird left of preening Whimbrel): dark cap and smaller bill evident with BBPL's for comparison just to bird's right (behind Whimbrel) and ca. 10 birds to left
