A lovely day spent in Inverclyde produced two soaring Sparrowhawks - one over Murdieston Park, Greenock and one over Levan near McInroy's Point. The Coots on the reservoirs at Murdieston seem to be thriving with plenty of evidence of late broods in the form of two pairs on nests, one with young chicks and two with dependant young. Blue Tits also provided evidence of late breeding (although presumably replacement rather than second or third broods) with two sets of newly-fledged young seen.
