I had to go to Greenock this morning so took the opportunity to pay a visit to my WeBS site which covers the two reservoirs in Murdieston Park. The Mute Swan pair on Cowdenknowes Dam had seven newly-hatched cygnets. Meanwhile on Town Dam, the female was incubating and the male chasing away intruding Tufted Ducks (I had assumed this pair had failed as their nest was empty when I visited a month ago). Coot and Mallard pairs also had young and I managed to confirm breeding by a pair of Dippers when I heard the begging calls of their chicks coming from a culvert. Back in Glasgow, a non-birding visit to Thornliebank was greatly improved by the sudden appearance of two Ravens calling and swooping low over the houses.
