Have a small leak from the front brake reservoir. Can't see where it's appearing from but a few drops seem to appear between the bleed nipple and the reservoir. I wipe them away and after I apply the front brake, they reappear. Everything seems tight and it's not coming from the nipple. Anyone else has this issue in the past? Are front reservoirs prone to failing?

If you have recently changed the brake pads the fluid level could be too high.
If not the bleed nipple may have dirt under its pointed end. Take it out be sure it's all clean and refit the nipple.
