Little help:

(I've updated the picture and four more pictures They're four pieces from the big picture so you can have a better look)

Mallard
Shoveler
Teal
Lapwing
Shelduck
Snipe
Not sure of the last... Black-tailed Godwit?

Also, is there not a Gadwall, in the water in the middle of the back spit, looking left?

Not quite sure what the 'bright' thing is in front of it, but the head sticking up looks very much like a male Gadwall.

Am I the only one who can't see a Lapwing? Mallard, Teal, Shelduck, Shoveler, Black-tailed Godwit and then I'm guessing (or should I say copying).....Redshank and, go on then, Lapwing.

The bird tri-counties has picked out was not one of the two Gadwalls I think are in the pictures. In the first picture the duck in the centre of the nearest island. In the same picture with a drake Mallard on the right hand end, two birds are coming towards you and the bird on the right of the two looks like a male Gadwall.

I think the gadwall is a shoveler seen at an angle where the white patch at the back is entirely surrounded by the darker parts of the bird. Apart from shoveler, I see teal, shelduck, mallard, lapwing and black-tailed godwit - perhaps a snipe hidden in the grass?

No, still can't find it, although I am only looking on my phone (my excuse and I'm sticking to it).

Got the lapwing fairly early on and what is possibly the godwit - too late to change my choices - but cant see other waders..... Struggling for a gadwall....
