Pictures taken on a tour of Scottish football gorunds - Lesser Hampden is located immediately beside the western end of Hampden Park.
In 1923, Queen's Park were looking for an alternative venue for their other teams. The club purchased a farm to the west of Hampden Park and built a pitch and stands. When it opened in 1924, Lesser Hampden had a capacity of 12,000. To save money, the original farmhouse was retained and was converted into a pavilion and dressing room. This farmhouse, which dates back to the 19th century is believed by football historians to be the oldest football building in the world.

Differentiating between Greater and Lesser Scaups is not easy, especially for females such as this one. The general rule in the boreal winter is that the Greater Scaup prefers saltwater and the Lesser fresh, but truth be told, the Lesser Scaup could be found on either fresh or salt. The Greater Scaup would have a broader head at this angle of view with a larger "nail", the black area on the front of the bill. When you are this close, the colour of the iris is a big help - amber in Lesser and bright yellow in Greater. The best way to tell them apart is to see them flying since the Greater Scaup has much more white in the wing. Hunters call these ducks "Bluebills" for obvious reasons. Dec 29, 2010.
Lesser Striped Swallows are easy to identify because of the rufous head and striped underparts. This one was at the Bigodi Wetlands.
