Common Redshank it is, Bill would be more slender and longer, the overall shape of Spot red is thinner and more elegant looking too.

Balls. One out of three! I thought about Common Sand but thought the white might be the body position. Thought it was too dark. Now can see the long tail as well. I could go on...
