Two attempts to fish River Sark for chub over the past ten days. First time the river was running heavy and coloured. One dipper seen while walking the banks. Tried to catch Gretna starling roost but only saw a couple of small flocks.
Today pretty much a repeat story, except river was a little lower. Still struggled to keep bait stable in the hotel swim. Starlings almost as elusive as before.

Wednesday 5th December
Walk through Locharbriggs end of cycle track waiting for new car keys. Visual conditions very pretty. Goldfinches around and main tits including long tailed. Some dunnocks about too.
On Sunday revisited St Michael's Churchyard. Waxwings still around same location but in smaller numbers. Today only around 15 in tree. Still have not got close enough to see the fancy wing and tail coverings.
