The flurries of snow which have been dropping on West Central Scotland over the past week finally added up to something overnight with the Renfrewshire and Luss hills completely covered this morning. The bigger hills further north (Ben Lomond, Ben More and Stob Binnien) remain seriously snow-bound. The weather doesn't seem to have bothered the Chaffinch or Great Tit which were singing outside the house first thing. Nor does it seem to have detained the Whooper Swans which are now down to 4 at Blackstone Mains. A Grey Heron high over the M8 on the way to Greenock was nothing special. More unusual were 3 Kestrels within a mile of eachother (including a pair in the same tree) above Blantyre this afternoon.
