Tringa nebularia
On a mid-afternoon spotted at farm,
I think you are right Sachin, there are 2 different birds and both Id's stand correct. Liam for the first 2 pics and Atul for last 3. Maybe you should check on the net for the photos of both these birds.
The bill does not match Common Sandpiper at all, and the legs are too long. The legs do not look colorful enough nor does the bird seem pale enough to be Marsh Sandpiper (Tringa stagnatilis). My vote is Common Greenshank.
