Today started with a Siskin on the garden feeders. A long walk around the north east of Glasgow produced some interesting sightings including a Snipe flicking up from Frankfield Loch, a singing Tree Pipit in Drumpellier Country Park (where a presumed breeding colony of Black-headed Gulls was in full swing), a singing Stonechat on the moor between Bishop Loch and Easterhouse, a pair of Gadwall on Auchinlea Pond and singing Blackcap, Chiffchaff and Willow Warbler all round the route. Pink-footed Geese were moving north all morning with five flocks totalling around 450 birds. Twenty Meadow Pipits were on farmland just south of Gartcosh but the highlight there was a confiding Brown Hare.
