Lochwinnoch RenfrewshireI had a great few hours at this place yesterday..I'm not a bird watcher but really enjoyed it. It's an RSPB nature reserve, and has a shop, drinks machine and biscuits /crisps /flapjacks , and toilets.
There are hides at the centre itself and more on the wooded walk.
All the pics I took were from the centre hide..got not a sausage on the wooded walk ..cause awww the birdies were up hiding in the trees , but lovely scenery all the same.

Thank you very much ..I think it would be a good place for UG to go..good short walks..hunners of burds and insects and plantlife. I think a pub nearby too and a train station right across the road. Maybe one for the future.

If the pub you're thinking of is the Hungry Monk you'd better take out a bank loan before going!!!
The food is fantastic but pricey!

My thoughts when i seen the prices in there was "nae wunner monks look miserable aw the time "
Though the food was good I might add.

Nice one was that the Heli tour or something that left Glasgow for a bit of sunshine ?
If it was the latter option did they not go mental at airport security with your 2 rags and bottle of Windowlene.
Lovely clear image.

Courtesy of Easyjet once I'd given the window an obligatory vigorous elbow rub to get the greasy marks off

Aye you've got a fine pair of cycling pins Minxy although those lycra shorts looked a bit on the tight side from up there
