Shorebird rump shot

Pleas excuse the awful quality of photo. I only noticed this bird as it landed on the mudflats and darted straight under a boat. It had very yellow legs and the beak of the average shore bird although I think it was slightly plumper/heavier set. I was thinking a bittern but I’m not very good with waders and sea birds.
