The local House Sparrows were much more evident today than they have been for several weeks. I often notice that they seem to go missing in late summer, but it may be just that they are not so vocal at this time of year. Two Nuthatches were feeding on the path several hundred metres from where I normally see them. Two Stock Doves were also present and a Grey Heron flew under Bonnyholm Bridge. Not in my local square but nearby, a Pied Wagtail was on a rooftop behind the convenience shop on Crookston Road.
