Domestic duties took precedence today, but an early start ensured that a few good birds were added before the main business started. First of these were around 25 Whooper Swans feeding next to the A6 at Inchinnan. Further west, a huge feeding flock of geese on stubble included at least 200 Greylags, 60 Canadas, four Barnacles and nine Beans. The latter gave good enough views to reveal bright orange feet and a bill pattern similar to that of Pink footed Goose (suggesting the Tundra race Rossicus). Also in the same field were three Stock Doves and at least 10 Chaffinches, with 200 mixed Fieldfares and Redwings overhead.
Mugdock Loch held six Goldeneye and a single Goosander while a Jay screeched nearby. Over 100 Redwings were at Gallangad.
