Hello,
couldn't get a really decent photo of this one, but I hope the ones I did manage to get are enough to confirm the id: is it a juvenile little stint (Calidris minuta)?
The landing photo is terrible, but it's the only one I have showing its tail and wings - shouldn't the end of the tail be more gray for a little stint?
The same bird in all pictures, maybe with the exception of the first one (I'm not sure), and of course there's a dunlin in one of them to compare sizes.
Thanks in advance!
