Most notable event this week has been the incredibly high tide yesterday afternoon. On the drive up the Clyde, the water was well above the normal shoreline. Oystercatchers and Redshanks had resorted to roosting on the partially inundated grass, and a large flock of Lapwings (and possibly Golden Plovers) had decanted to the meadows on the other side of the motorway.
Weather now decidedly cooler, although no frost as yet. News from the net is that the first Waxwings have been seen in Shetland.
