Some Scilly bird IDs please

[Tiggrx]

I'm not much of a birder so would appreciate some help with these IDs.

All were taken over the last week in the Scilly Isles. Sorry some are a bit blurry.

First - finch sized bird on St Agnes - is it a linnet?


Secondly on a beach on St Agnes. It shows flashes of reddish colour when it flies. I am guessing either female redstart or black redstart.



Finally a wader on Old Town Beach, St Mary's - is it a greenshank?


Thanks for any help
Aaron

The second bird is a female Black Redstart - nice find!
I'd agree with your other ids,
Guy

Thanks for your help Guy. I was hoping it was a Black Redstart, I've not seen one before.
