A few trips to the reservoir over the past few days failed to produce anything of note, and it looked like it was going to be more of the same today initially. However, after much scanning of the southern end I was able to find a total of three Green Sandpipers and five Common Sandpipers and then I stumbled across a Wood Sandpiper! It was favouring the back of the "pond" that has been formed by the drop in water levels. Unfortunately it was always very distant and was last seen in flight in the company of a Green Sandpiper...the latter returned to the same area but I lost the Wood Sandpiper and was unable to relocate it.
