Waders ID, please

Is the one in 9014a a grey-tailed tattler, and the one in the middle of 9015a an Asian dowitcher?

Taken in MP boardwalk in May 17

For 9014a, I think it is Common Greenshank,,,,,,
For in the middle of 9015a,,,,,,as the base of the bill show shadowed colour,,,,and the length and shape of the bill show it is more likely to be Long-billed Dowitcher
correct me if I'm Wrong

The middle bird in 9015a is an Asian Dowitcher. Compared to Long-billed it is slightly larger and longer-necked. Also, the upperparts are marked with pale fringes - on Long-billed the upperparts would be much plainer than on this bird.

9014a is a Common Greenshank. In fact, the birds in 9015a are Grey-tailed Tattlers (apart from the dowitcher!)
