Sandpiper at Casperson Beach

It's not easy to tell the sandpipers apart.  Above is either a semipalmated sandpiper or a western sandpiper.  Black bills and feet, dark mottled back, and streaked breast, both are about the same size.  The books say that some "cherp" and some "cheep".  (My parakeet "cheeps".)
