Bingham's still frozen

Yet another trip to Bingham's Pond to fill the feeders and yes it is still partly frozen ..

 
An area close to the steps from Great Western Road was still open and all resident species of wildfowl as well as Black-headed Gulls can be seen in this photo ..
 
 
Apart from the wildfowl, Great Tit, Blue Tit and Chaffinch were attracted to the feeders and this Jackdaw proved to be photogenic ..
 
 
Elsewhere in the Greater Glasgow area recent sightings, courtesy of SOC Clyde Grapevine, include:
 
Sunday 1 February 2015
A 1st-winter Iceland Gull on the River Clyde at Dalmuir Sewage Treatment Works at 1015 hrs.
