Responded to a call from friends in Hillington to find a Collared Dove badly injured (presumably by a Sparrowhawk) and, in fact, breathing its last. The local Magpies and Crows had finished it off; a sad end to a lovely bird. Raptors were also prominent during a late afternoon walk along the river, with Buzzards at Leverndale and Hawkhead Woodland, and a Kestrel near Bull Wood. Also notable were three Roe Deer feeding out in the open at Hurlethill.
