I think it's a Common Redshank, Bill.

Yeah, John, I agree with the point about the location etc. and if it was with Wood Sands, it probably was one.

Still, it would pass for Common Red. if we didn't know where it was and what it was with - I can just about see what you mean about "visible plumage pattern" in #1, but the legs, in apparent thickness as well as colour seem so much more like Common Red.
