This morning at Dorney Lake the first bird of the day was a female NORTHERN WHEATEAR at the start end of the causeway. Nothing seen then till the Seasonal Pool (1250M). On the Pool were 2 COMMON GREENSHANK which were very flighty; they then flew off high to the East.
Further along towards the clubhouse another female NORTHERN WHEATEAR and a Common Sandpiper flew from the edge of the Return Lake.
On my return back to the car I spotted the WHIMBREL on the edge of the Reserve Pool. It then flew onto the grass and started feeding.
Tonight there was a third COMMON GREENSHANK of the day on the Seasonal Pool. This one was colour ringed. Unfortunately the distance and light conditions weren't right to see the colours. There was one ring on the left leg and two on the right, all above the knee. It is the fourth colour ringed bird seen at Dorney Lake. The Whimbrel was still present around the Reserve Pool feeding in the grass (Kevin Duncan)
