Mai Po early morning on the 16th of April

Visit to the scrape very early morning yielded the following birds (may be an id confirmation would be needed)

Pintail/Swinhoe Snipe 1
Oriental Pratincole x12+
Little Curlew x3 (?)
Oriental Plover x1 (?)
record shots of the curlews and plover for validation of the identity

Thanks a lot Tung.
Interested to know if the other plovers seen on Sunday are still there... That was the only Oriental Plover in Pond 16-17 yesterday morning.
Probably the Curlews did an express passage, they were there for 10 minutes feeding at around 7.15am. They came from the left (south-west?) - when I was in Hide 1) and left to the right (north-east?).
