@TheQuietSoul13 @WWTSteart Yeah, good question. Pics below - Least left; Stint right. Field guide says yellow/greenish legs (Stint: black), extensive breast streaking (Stint: white front end), and browner colouration overall (Stint: grey ad. winter). First for me and will be checking stint legs in future!

@mikecgowen @bristolbirding Nice to talk to you this morning, Mike. Stayed until midday and they didn’t move from the buoy, though woke up briefly due a passing boat to reveal there were 6.
