Re: image and likeness
Not only would it be redundant, but it woudl be saying the same thing two different ways!

Re: Why adam not mentioned on the third day
I don't know..
The fact he was naked, alone and unashamed just makes him like the rest of the beasts (except the unalone).
It is the knowleged of good and evil that rises him above the level of the beasts, and is just part of God's plan. I don't see from the text that man was created/formed/whatever on the third day at all.
Bringing in something from a later book , IMO, is irrelavent.

Actually, 'bara' does not mean 'create' per say. If you look at how that verb is used in Samuel, it is used as 'fatten' some oxes ,or fill up.
Therefore god began to fill up the heavens and the earth,not create.
