Likely male with moderate up-bent bill. Beginning basic plumage. Probably 2cy because of brownish tertials and coverts. Also Long-billed Dowitchers. |

Pullus. For documentation only. Not sure if it happens every year 2 pairs with each 3 pullus were seen. There is quite a lot of disturbance around the reservoir: children and farmers amongst others, and when the reservoir sometimes dries up completely, it is easy to imagine the difficulties being a successful breeder at this locality. |

Probably a young bird with the very worn and brownish dark parts. And perhaps a male because of the less upturned bill. Also a Western Sandpiper. |
