Managed a walk along the Cart between appointments today. Miserable weather but plenty of signs of Spring. Lesser Celandine, Daffodil and Snowdrop in flower, plus lots of Wild Garlic, Bluebell, Comfry and Dog's Mercury (at last year's site) in leaf. Birds included a Cormarant, two and a half pairs of Mallard, a pair of Goosander, 3 Long tailed Tits and a flock of around 100 Redwings chattering in the treetops.
News from the web is that the first Sand Martins and Osprey have been seen locally.
Another item of interest was the announcement of a new SNH initiative on Scotland's endangered wildlife.
