A Wren in the garden at 6pm was a site first for me. Earlier in the day, 5 Blue Tits (including 3 in juvenile plumage) hinted at a second brood (the Great Tits which fledged at the same time as the previous Blue Tit brood are now resplendent in adult plumage). On the way home from work, a short stop at the esplanade revealed possible Manx Shearwaters well offshore, but too far out to identify without the telescope. Then on the way past the airport a Sparrowhawk swept over the motorway. Later, the drive back from Glenburn, through Barrhead, revealed 6 Swallows (5 on telephone lines). Back at the glade, a Red Fox calling from the railway embankment brought a good day's connections to a close.
