The drive home this evening (about 6pm) brought a notable natural connection in the form of a pair of Shelducks out on the flats at Finaystone with 5 or 6 small young. I don't think I have ever seen a family group hereabouts before.
Other notable sightings along the Cart this evening were a Kingfisher flying into a waterside Willow and plenty of flowering Honesty (I think - the flowers come in two colours - white and purple). Later, checked out the House Martins nesting in Cardonald Gardens (at number 31). There seem to be two active nests with around 6 birds involved, some possibly from an earlier brood. Noticed at least two alighting on the roof before being flushed back into the air by others.
