The Kentish Plover on the 14th appears to be a Swinhoe's Plover.

Thx for telling me that. I just thought that Kentish plover were changing plumage.
BTW, some more photos attached.
Photos marked with DC were taken by Mirrorless(M43) DC with 300mm F4 + 1.4x directly while
photos marked with Digiscoping were taken by M43 with 17mm lens coupled with Kowa spotting scope
and so the color of plumage shown differently.
#1 (Digiscoping)
#2 (Digiscoping)
#3 (DC)
#4 (DC)
#5 (DC)
#6 (Digiscoping)
#7 (DC)
#8 (Digiscoping)
(not sure whether it was another Plover)
#9 (DC)
