A Kestrel hovered over the braes and several Fieldfares flew between their various feeding sites. 2 Heron attempted to feed in the Windlaw marsh area.
Good numbers of Yellowhammer at the Windlaw Farm end possibly up to 50 present and they were accompanied by at least 10 Reed Buntings and at least 6 Tree Sparrow. 2 House Sparrows and up to 5 Chaffinches were also present. 3 or 4 Stock Dove were seen with the many Wood Pigeons.
Up to 50 Yelowhammers present:
Tree Sparrow is a new species for me for this site :
Reed Bunting c10 present :
After fighting with Morrisons I went for a look at Strathclyde Loch in the mid to late afternoon. Gull numbers were considerably down. This I assume is caused by the almost complete ice on the loch making them more exposed to foxes. Anyway a Juvenile Glaucous Gull flew in at 3:20 pm and bathed and preened before roosting on the ice.
