I went to check on a couple of Rookeries in Renfrewshire today - at Shanks Park, Johnstone and in the woods to the south of Brookfield. Unfortunately, nether appeared to be occupied. On the way home I checked Corkerhill Cemetery, a local site that has held nesting birds in recent years. Again however there were no Rooks present and no sign of any nests at all. In between, I came across two singing Yellowhammers and plenty of Blackcaps, Willow Warblers and Chiffchaffs. Also notable was a group of Rabbits consisting of two adults and at least four tiny juveniles.
