Unfortunately I'm currently as bad with my waders as with gulls so would really appreciate some help. Some of these photos are appalling, so apologies in advance.

Thanks,

Richard

... a few more ...

The black-headed gull and little egret I can do, the rest I'm down to redshank and very hesitant greenshank, but please correct me.

Cheers

1 ruff
2 redshank and black-headed gull
3 ruff
4 again, a feeding flock of ruff with maybe some redshank in the background
5 ruff
6 ruff
7 wood sandpiper
 
and a 'possible' Water Rail in pic 4, just to the left of centre on the edge of the reeds?

That would be nice ... they're officially NT here, but that bird (if I'm looking at the same one) seems to have a white breast in a second photo that was taken a couple of seconds later (see below), so I'm guessing it's another ruff?
