The usual Greenock walk this lunchtime turned up a surprise in the form of a Dipper on the artificial pool next to Inverkip Road. The bird was pottering in the shallows before flying to the outlet grille where it started to sing. Earlier, at least 50 Siskins were singing from tall trees in the cemetery. Other singing birds there included Great, Blue and Coal Tits, Wren, Dunnock and Robin. Over 100 Jackdaws were on the wing above the cemetery where a Great spotted Woodpecker called and 4 Chaffinches were together near the top of the north steps. Notable birds on the reservoirs included 5 Goldeneye and a single Cormorant.
