That was my guess too Heather but didn't want to stick my neck out on the blog. I do know there are some bird smart folks who stop by from time to time.
They are Purple Sandpipers Matthew. Caldris maritima. They are a very approachable bird, and like the closely related Rock Sandpiper of the west, spend much of their time on rocky shores.
They look like sandpipers. Possibly Baird's Sandpiper, but I'm definitely not an expert!
