Spent a lovely afternoon in Mugdock Park. Birds were fairly thin on the ground (possibly due to a combination of masses of people and a strong breeze). The exception was Mugdock Loch which held good numbers of Mallard and Tufted Duck (possibly including birds displaced from Craigton Pond) plus single Wigeon and Pochard (the latter, my first for the site). A Buzzard was mobbed by a Carrion Crow over the Khyber Field.

Help! A very large raptor flew very clumsily low across the motorway at the M73/M80 junction this morning. Seemed to rise out of the undergrowth at one side. Dark grey/brown. If I was further north I would have said it was a golden eagle - it was that large. No idea what it was.
Later a grey squirrel ran up a horsechestnut with a very large concker in its mouth
