Patchwork Challenge Day 1

Was out bright & early on my 'South Cathkin' patch. How long will it last ? I am reasonably confident in my ability to visit regularly until late Spring after that who knows.

Best from the Heritage Loch : 1 Treecreeper, 30 Lapwing, 6 Snipe & 6 Little Grebe. The fields between here & Cathkin Marsh held a small gathering of Redwing, Fieldfare & Mistle Thrush.

Cathkin Marsh did not produce the expected SEO's. Perhaps the recent appalling weather has moved them on or maybe my late morning timing was off. The appearance of a fly through Peregrine was an unexpected bonus.

Finished on 39 species. My goal is 75 plus by 31 Dec 16.
