A tale of two ponds today - Bingham's first thing, then Murdieston later. Notable sightings on the former were one brood of Mallard ducklings (3) and a single Moorhen chick. At Murdieston, the Mute Swan pair (with only 3 cygnets left) have moved to the top dam, and were harrassing the resident pair there (who seem to have failed in their breeding attempt). A Pied Wagtail was still acting furtively near the boardwalk and a Coot was incubating while another pair were nest building. Best sighting was of 6 Swifts screaming around the tenements down Murdieston Street.
