Lesser Yellowlegs - Marloes Mere

What appears to be a Lesser Yellowlegs at Marloes Mere this evening. Out from Britton Hide. Never very clear views but managed a brief video - having looked at the video I'm fairly convinced it's a LYL, no tail bobbing, attenuated rear, fine bill. Stilt-like bright yellow legs mostly hidden by bistort but clear enough, seems likely to be the bird that was on Skomer last week. Also Ringed plover, Golden Plover and a Little Stint. And a Yellow Wagtail looped over car park.
