More Local Stuff

On a typically gloomy January day I started at the Heritage Loch where there were small numbers of Tufted Duck & Mallard. A drake Pochard was new whilst the female Goldeneye remained as did the Scaup which I think is a 1st winter male ?

At the west end a typically cryptic Snipe & the usual small flock of Lapwings the latter of which allowed a surprisingly close approach:

I can see you

Down at Strathclyde Park I located the adult Ring Billed Gull on the water off the 3rd car park. It was just about close enough for a record shot:
