White-rumped Sandpiper FKLD SER (Calidris fuscicollis)

Flocks of these sandpipers were foraging along the strand lines on the gravel/cobble beach at the west end of Bleaker Island. No member of my bird photographer group was a sandpiper expert, so I would appreciate your confirmation of my ID of this bird.
