We started with a wildfowl feeding session; I led a guided walk and we also undertook an informal litter pick ............
On the walk we spotted a good range of wildfowl including a very confiding male Gadwall ....
..and adult and juvenile Great Crested Grebes .....
We also had a quick glimpse of a Sparrowhawk and extended views of this Buzzard ..
With 20+ species of bird seen, lots of Red Admiral butterflies enjoying the autumn sunshine and five bags of litter collected; it was a really nice positive way to spend a Saturday.
Finally, some recent sightings from the Greater Glasgow area, courtesy of the SOC Clyde Grapevine:
