The mist/ low cloud did eventually clear around midday, with a plane coming in mid afternoon, possibly a long wait from 8am if you were hanging around in Glasgow airport.....
Alistair Hutchinson who lives in Bowmore had a Goldcrest in his garden mid week and then this morning, he saw a Treecreeper on the Hawthorn bush/ tree at the rear of his garden...
