No 1 is a Wood Sandpiper. Note the longer, yellowish legs and the spotted upperparts.

No 2 is a female Black-faced Bunting. The bill is too deep for a pipit, and the underparts are slightly yellowish. Also it seems to be feeding on grass seed - typical behaviour for a bunting (but not a pipit)

Tks a lot for correcting me.
