Whiskered Tern, Pin-tailed Snipe, Swinhoe's Snipe
A group of around ten Whiskered Terns — adults and juveniles — arrived. Among the snipe, Common Snipe numbers are up while Pin-tailed Snipe have decreased.
Long-toed Stint, Wood Sandpiper, Common Greenshank, and Marsh Sandpiper are also present in good numbers.
