"Today (31 August 2012) there was a juvenile Marsh Harrier flying from the Gartloch Pool area towards Bishop Loch, Glasgow at 1115 hrs, relocated at Bishop Loch at 1250 hrs, before flying north in the direction of Johnston Loch."
"Late news for 2
September 2012 - An Osprey at Frankfield
Loch, Glasgow at 0730 hrs, flying in the direction of Hogganfield
where it was not relocated."
This is at least the third record of Marsh Harrier for Gartloch Pools and Bishop Loch.
Both sightings help confirm the importance of the Seven Lochs Project - an area that includes Hogganfield Park LNR, Frankfield Loch and Gartloch Pools in Glasgow all the way through to Drumpellier Country Park and Johnston Loch in North Lanarkshire.
