Garden Wildlife UK

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

The water's not that deep, it's only half way up the swans!!
Another super selection Linda, thank you

See this is the time tae be visiting Scotland SM...its gonna be baltic but with sunshine for the foreseeable .....och the bullfinch were 1st to greet me on the path of interest
Snipe was a bonus as it was on the grass infront of the hide so mega close for a change

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
