The canal towpath between the Clyde Shopping Centre and Great Western Road was treacherous underfoot due to overnight frost. Most interesting birds were at least seventeen Common Gulls, several of which were in first winter plumage. Three Mute Swans flying along the canal made a loud creaking/whooshing sound which could be heard from a fair distance away. A detour up to Kilbowie Cemetery found at least six flighty Redwings and a single, flyover Raven. A variegated Holly there had several branches bearing pale yellow leaves. Back at the canal, Jelly Ear fungus was growing on several of the Elder trees lining the towpath.
