ID please, Far Eastern Curlew ?

Sorry that the photo is not clear enough.
It seems no white rump and underwing covert appeared to be barred.

Bird book said that usually one appeared between a folk of Eurasian Curlew,
But they seemed to be a folk of Far Eastern Curlew.

Thx!

F E Curlews

Four, possibly five (?) Far Eastern Curlews.   It is unusual to see so many at one time, but the 2011,2012 and 2013 "Peak counts" were 5,6 and 6 (according to the 2013 HK Bird Report).
