A bit big Millie
 Is the top one a common crane? Not sure on the duck, iis it a female goldeneye? Then there is a flock of godwits (bar-tailed?) with some brent geese, and the last two are starlings.

First one is Common Crane, I think the red spot behind the eye is the give away??
Had to zoom out some though Millie!! No idea about the duck except what Stuart says.

Sub adult Common Crane / 1st winter male Common Goldeneye (not sure why the neck looks dark though) / Bar-tailed Godwits, 3 Dark-bellied Brent Geese (Inc. one 1st winter) + 1 that may be a hybrid with Black Brant - also a possible Dunlin / Common Starlings
