Just wanted to check the following, even though a Temmink Stint is at this lovely site, I think the following are

Dunlin and then a young Ruff

Many thanks

A non wader pic, I am guessing this is a juvenile Dunnock, could not see the eye markings that I normally associate but everything else fitted.

Many thanks again

Dunnock is probably adult as the plumage is not too fresh as expected for juveniles at this time of year.
