Wednesday 8th January 2014

Bike ride to Castle Douglas.  Lone whooper swan sitting in field just past Crocketford.  One strong flying bird of prey not identified  - looked a bit dark to be a buzzard but low light was tricky.

Just one redwing in distance coming back over Glenkilns and none of the flocks of three weeks ago. Perhaps they are already going back to Scandinavia in the mild conditions.  Also no waxwings around as far as I can tell from checking sites and occasional run past the churchyard.
