Haematopota are very difficult to ID.
It looks much too grey for H. pluvialis, but then again, in eastern Europe some populations are unusually grey. So I can't tell in this case.

Right. That would help.
As would a frontal and lateral headshot.
I know, it's much asked,
but then again, identifying Haematopota from pictures is equally much asked !
