tom1cameron 1 Posted March 16, 2009 Report Share Posted March 16, 2009 on the train from GQS to Stirling, as you pass by the F&C canal near Kilsyth/Denny area there are lots of floods both right next to the canal also on the upper flood tier at the edge of fields adjoining the railway. I must have seen about half a dozen natural floods which were always full of mallard and teal when I took the early train. Its a long shot but it always seemed like somewhere I would scout out if I was in the area T Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tom1cameron 1 Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Where about's exactly mate, I shoot most of the farm's near denny and kilsyth, Thank's. 6 years since I took that journey regularly but it was definately after Lenzie and before Stirling! I believe it was before the train met the ridge of the grasslands adjoining the canal, small sloped fields, often barley stubble in winter that held floods next to the trainline. These small floods were teeming with ducks and were permanent enough to have moorhen and coots using them T Quote Link to post Share on other sites
