A busy day of house moves started in Shawlands where sixteen Swifts were gathered high over Strathyre Street around 08:50. I imagine this must be the entire breeding population of the area (hopefully with some fledged young among them) getting ready to head south. I didn't hear them at all later in the day. Also notable was a Buzzard being chased by twenty or more Lesser Black-backed Gulls (some have young on neighbouring rooftops) near the primary school. A careful search of the Ragwort plants growing along Camphill Avenue eventually produced one pair of Common Red Soldier Beetles on the edge of Camphill Park.
