Editing Common ringed plover (section)

==Description==
Adults are {{convert|17|–|19.5|cm|in|abbr=on}} in length with a {{convert|35|–|41|cm|in|abbr=on}} wingspan. They have a grey-brown back and wings, a white belly, and a white breast with one black neckband. They have a brown cap, a white forehead, a black mask around the eyes and a short orange and black bill. The legs are orange and only the outer two toes are slightly webbed, unlike the slightly smaller but otherwise very similar [[semipalmated plover]], which has all three toes slightly webbed, and also a marginally narrower breast band; it was in former times included in the present species. Juvenile ringed plovers are duller than the adults in colour, with an often incomplete grey-brown breast band, a dark bill and dull yellowish-grey legs.

This species differs from the smaller [[little ringed plover]] in leg colour, the head pattern, and the lack of an obvious yellow eye-ring.
