Today started at a calm and sunny Kinneil. The tide was well out and the mudflats were studded with thousands of birds as far as the eye could see. Shelduck, Black tailed Godwit, Redshank and Teal were particularly evident. Plenty of Grey Herons were along the channels, but there were no Little Egrets on show. Land birds included Goldfinch, Reed Bunting and still a fair few Swallows. All too soon, work beckoned, so any remaining delights had to remain undiscovered.
Spent the morning working near Denny, then headed down to Greenock. The settled weather continued and the drive home saw the Cowal hills silhouetted against a golden autumn sky.
