This looks like a typical first-fall Semipalmated Plover, to me, though the photo is a bit washed out.

Think its a young killdeer. They have only one breast band. Bill looks too long and birds seems too big for semipalmated plover.

At our place near Donnelly both deer and black bears work our feeders, in addition to a almost 20 bird species.
