This morning Colin had a Common Sandpiper at the reservoir and Steve saw three this afternoon. Late evening there was only one but another up the valley at the Borrow Pit pool. Steve also saw three Little Ringed Plovers and John saw a Yellow Wagtail. Late evening there were three Yellow Wagtails at the Borrow Pit pool.

On his way to the reservoir this morning Colin found a singing Wood Warbler in Spiceball Park. Amazingly it was in the same area as the bird he found last year. Unlike last years bird though, this one stayed around all day and although it went quiet at times it sang frequently through the day.
