Walk around Victoria park this afternoon. Warm and quite sunny. Lots of small damselflies out on the pond.
Ardinning this afternoon. Very sunny & bright. A few butterflies, mostly peacocks & some orange tips. A couple of peacocks spiralled up high. Cuckoos calling. At the bench beside the loch we heard a big splash. Looking round through the bushes we saw an osprey come out of the water & fly off.
Took the short walk to Greenside reservoir this morning. Lots of spring happening, bird song, especially chiffchaff & willow warbler. Heard blackcaps (confirmed with merlin) and finally saw some. A cuckoo calling, the first this year. A few butterflies around including one small tortoiseshell.
A raven flew through the trees and circled above. on each loop diving, folding & twisting in a relaxed, effortless way, despite the speed.

Watched a couple of dabchicks fishing on the park pond this afternoon.
Just before dawn, song thrush singing loudly in the lime tree across from our close. Clear sky too.
