At Dorney Lake this morning the first Mallard ducklings were swimming around the pontoons at the start end of the main rowing lake. On the causeway there were 5 migrant Ringed Plovers. These were later flushed by vehicles setting up for a charity walk/run. Yesterdays male NORTHERN WHEATEAR was near the sheep pen at 500M. On the Reserve Pool a pair of Common Shelduck with 3 Redshank and a Green Sandpiper. The Seasonal Pool still had a few Teal, Gadwall, a single male Shoveler and a second Green Sandpiper.
