Plover ID help

[zharca]

Hi, Both of these birds were at Two Tree Island in Essex a couple of weeks ago.
Both of the pictures are very big crops from birds just a speck in the frame, so apologies for the quality.
I've worked out that they are Plovers, but I'm not sure which ones.
First bird I think might be in the middle of a moult because the black markings don't seem to match anything:



And this one has a very strong white line above the eye. Shame it's so far away or that could have made a nice pic with those colours!

Both look like Grey Plovers to me. The first one is moulting and the second is a juvenile/winter plumaged bird.

Hi, thanks Guy. I had thought the first one might be sort of half-and-half when I couln't find any pics that matched his markings.
