Another Garganey

Marek found a Garganey LFGP yesterday evening, I saw it this morning and now feel the 1 Teal I reported on the 12th far in the NE corner was this bird. At the time I saw a very small loral spot, quite marked along the flanks and bigger bill, but looking into the morning hazy light, back on most of the time, plus the distance, I eventually gave up when it wondered into vegetation. Also today, 1 Green & 1 Common Sandpiper, 2 Hobby low South, a trickle of hirundines, 11+ Shoveler, 10+ Teal and a female Mandarin reported after we had left, which then flew towards Lavell's.
