A short walk around NS56V (Cathcart) produced 20 species but only 3 additions to the winter total for the tetrad: Mallard, Collared Dove and Jackdaw(!). Species such as Kingfisher, Goosander, Cormorant and Grey Heron stubbornly refused to give themselves up. However one that got away was a possible Nuthatch heard calling once, briefly in suitable habitat.
What was particularly notable about today was the number of species in song: Coal, Blue and Great Tits, Dunnock, Robin, Goldcrest, Woodpigeon, Collared Dove and Starling.
