Little Stint? In Spain yesterday (1 Viewer)

[timsg80]

I found this wader among a large group (about 60) of Little Stints yesterday in Mallorca, but its brown colouration and small size immediately stood out to me among the flock. Is it just a young Little Stint? Or one still with some summer plumage? Or is it something rarer?

Thanks!

Juvenile little stint. Most of the other things in the photos also look like (adult) little stints, but oddly a bit bigger...

I agree with Butty. Just wanted to add, that there is a basic plumaged Kentish Plover in the third picture.

Edit. the bird, you asked for is in full juvenile plumage, while the others are in winter plumage.
