My opinion (for what little it is worth):
1) Kentish (155)
2) 2x Great Knot, 2x Kentish (169)
3) RN stint - plain crown, stubby bill, attenuated rear due to tertials + primaries (358)
4) same individual (360)
5) Little stint to rear, probably RN in foreground - note prominent supercilium, but could easily be wrong! (361)

Very nice photos btw Mihir!
