Interesting photos, especially the bottom one which shows something i had often wondered about; does Eurasian Curlew have a longer foot projection than Eastern Curlew (on which it often looks very short).  Obviously this would be a useful id feature on a bird overhead.

A photo of a Eurasian Curlew in flight can be found here:
