Today's heavy rain eased off over lunchtime, allowing a brief walk around Murdieston Park. The two broods of Mute Swan cygnets were still doing well, as were the four juvenile Tufted Ducks, now feeding confidently in the middle of Cowdenknowes Dam. Over on Town Dam, a pair of Coots had a newly-hatched brood of 5 young. Gull numbers are still quite low, but over 20 juvenile Lesser black backs were present. Nearby, a rather scruffy Carrion Crow had extensive grey patches on its mantle and shoulders, suggesting the presence of some Hoodie genes.
Heading home this evening, a single Swift was with Swallows and House Martins feeding over Arkleston Farm.
