I managed to get a couple of photographs of this wader at Cley Marshes Nature reserve in North Norfolk on 27/4/23. I am struggling to work out which species it is. Any help much appreciated.

Many thanks to both for the answer.
This picture is from earlier in the week. I was told that these are a pair of ruffs so is the one in my original post at a different stage of development or just in winter plumage.
Thanks again for the original advice.
