1st September, 2011. Weir Wood Reservoir.

After visiting Beachy, we drove home via Weir Wood Reservoir and recorded the following:
Unfortunately, all the waders were right out on the mud and only poor views were obtained. Can't believe all you read on the web-sites, as the mud had receded quite a long way from the bank and the views were anything but wonderful!!

Little Egret 4
Teal 10
Greenshank 3
Green Sandpiper 7
Wood Sandpiper 1
Common Sandpiper 3
Little Ringed Plover 1
Dunlin 1
Little Stint 1
Kingfisher 1

The immature Night Heron had been seen earlier but had gone out of sight.
