Small wader from Netherlands - Green Sandpiper? (1 Viewer)

Hi everyone,
I saw this bird yesterday at the Nieuwe Driemanspolder in Zoetermeer, Netherlands.
Am I right in thinking this is a Green Sandpiper (Tringa ochropus)?
(There's also a Common Redshank in the first photo, and a Little Ringed Plover in the second - I left them in the crop as size comparisons)
Apologies for the sub-par photos, the bird was quite far away.
Thanks,
Max

And I believe this is one too? Different individual, but still same time and place.
