8th October - mostly cloudy, light NW, 12C, some light rain/drizzle pm

Cotesbach Landfill; after lunch - two Green Sandpipers were at a pool, then two others flew over and away.  26 Teal, 10 Shoveler were present roosting mostly.

Stanford reservoir; I could find 10 Pintail, although 15 have been reported, still the highest count I've had here.   Soon Goldeneye and Goosanders should be making an appearance here.  

Several Goldfinch after seeds, a single Chiffchaff, Great Spotted Woodpecker, two Jays, a Grey Heron, Kingfisher, Grey Wagtail  were among the birds seen.  30 Pied Wagtails were feeding on the spillway adjacent field and bathing in the spillway.
