I think this might be a Spotted Redshank rather than a Common Redshank given the long, dark, drooping bill (although thicker at the tip than many Spotted Redshanks show), the prominent white supercilium in front of and above the eye (although many eastern-race Common Redshanks show this too) and the long legs.
