The Glasgow City Council website for Richmond Park says it has “Bird watching in the nature pond heronry, kingfisher, otter, swans, summer and winter migrants”… and it’s not wrong. Fieldfare, Kingfisher and Heron all pictured there in the last week. #birds

A handsome Fieldfare scoffing berries at Richmond Park in Glasgow. These winter thrushes showed up in October and will be here until around April. There's often a mixed flock - Fieldfare and Redwing - showing around Glasgow Green/Dalmarnock/Richmond Park. #birds
