The rain went off a wee bit so I went out as all the garden birds were fighting amongst themselves....no like there is not enough food to go round!!!
There were loads of winter thrush in the fields but looked more like leaves in the low light so here's what turned out not too bad

Oh a just had a thought, maybe the Otters will swim into the scrapes....that would be cool 😆
So I should normally be able to walk across from one side to the other 😆

This is the clyde flowing into the scrape a couple of days ago
