26th August, 2014 Pulborough Brooks

With the news of a Broad-billed Sandpiper reported this morning, JK and myself decided to visit. Unfortunately, no sign of the Broad-billed but had quite an enjoyable morning watching a few waders. Also checked out the Black Pool but just odd Common Darters and no sign of any Black Darters. The following were seen:

Mandarian Duck 1 drake
Wigeon 6
Teal c100
Shoveler 6
Garganey 1 drake in partial eclipse plumage.
Ruff 4
Greenshank 2
Black-tailed Godwit 6
Green Sandpiper 1
Wood Sandpiper1
Common Sandpiper 1
Dunlin 1
