Jackdaw,  Magpie and Moorhen were among the species escorting newly-fledged young around the south Cardonald area today. One of the Jackdaw juveniles is a very scrawny individual with long, spindly legs and a bare patch on its abdomen. Other notable species were Greenfinch (singing again after being quiet recently - maybe launching a second breeding attempt), Long-tailed Tit (in a mixed flock with Great Tits) and Siskin (present in at least three areas around my home 1km2 square). Less welcome were a Carrion Crow and a Woodpigeon, both showing signs of disease (possibly avian flu).
