We are retiring our X account. A number of birders and naturalists have moved over to Bluesky, we have too. You can find us over there at: bsky.app/profile/clydesoc-gr… This account will be left open so you'll still be able to see our tweets but there will be no future updates. 1/2

A nice few hours birding Ardmore today. Black-necked Grebe still present, digiscoped in breezy conditions, GN diver and single sandwich tern were both Clyde year ticks for me. @Clydebirding

The Red Necked Grebe was on the far side of Hogganfield Loch yesterday when I lost sight of it. I was about to leave when to my surprise it popped up right in front of me. @Clydebirding

Great views of otter @RSPBLochwinnoch today. Another reason to love BH Gulls who find me 95% of my Aird Meadow otter sightings Had two patch year ticks this weekend Peregrine yesterday and 2 ringed plovers today. Lesser Scaup still present but distant this morning.

A rare five Grebe day in Clyde kicked off by the stunning Black-necked Grebe at Ardmore Point, soon followed by Slav and Great Crested Grebe. Moving inland to Hogganfield Loch, the Red-necked Grebe showed well with a few Little Grebe present too. @Clydebirding

Quick stop at bitterly cold Strathclyde loch to check the Gulls on the way home. A rather smart Mediterranean Gull was the highlight @Clydebirding
