Police searching for Glasgow student Karen Buckley are scouring the area around a flat where she spent the night and a park where her handbag has been found.
Dozens of officers have been deployed to Dawsholm Park following the find - and a helicopter is aiding the search.
The 24-year-old went missing in the early hours of Sunday after leaving the flat of Alexander Pacteau, who she met on a night out.
Mr Pacteau is not a suspect but communal areas outside his flat in Dorchester Avenue have been taped off while officers look for clues.
He has told officers she left at 4am. The Irish student has not been seen since.

Gallery: Police Search Park After Handbag Of Missing Student Found
The handbag of missing student Karen Buckley has been found in a Glasgow park
Officers have been searching through undergrowth in Dawsholm Park for clues
A police helicopter has been deployed to aid the search
The scale of the search is seen with numerous police officers involved
It is believed she was planning to walk back to her flat in Hill Street.
Her parents, who have flown from Ireland to help with the search, said it was typical for her not to use taxis.
Ms Buckley spent Saturday night with friends at Glasgow's Sanctuary nightclub on Dumbarton Road.
She told them at around 1am she was going to the toilet, but failed to return and left her jacket behind.
CCTV spotted her leaving the club with Mr Pacteau, who then drove her to his flat.
Detective Superintendent Jim Kerr said: "He believes he was intimate with her at his flat consensually in the early hours of Sunday.
"From what we can see, she does not appear to be under duress, there's no signs of a struggle or reluctance on her part to leave the club."
Police say they are now "gravely concerned" for the student's wellbeing.
The parents of Ms Buckley, who studies occupational therapy and is originally from Cork, said they were "desperate" for the public's help.
"We just want Karen home safely, we are desperate. She is our only daughter, we love her dearly," said her mother, Marian.
"If anybody has any information please come forward, we would dearly appreciate it."
Ms Buckley's father, John, said: "If anybody is holding Karen, if anybody knows anything of her, please return her. Please let's have her back. We love her to bits."
Det Supt Kerr said Ms Buckley was widely travelled and was "aware of how to take care of herself".
Police also want to find out more about a grey car seen on the roads between Milngavie and Drymen, north of Glasgow, between 11am and 3pm on Monday.
Det Supt Kerr said: "The activity of this grey car on the Monday is something that we're a wee bit concerned about.
"This car has been seen at various locations on these roads and I want to know why."
Ms Buckley is between 5ft and 5ft 2in with brown eyes and dark hair which has long black curly extensions in it.
She was last seen wearing a black jumpsuit, red high-heeled shoes and carrying a black handbag.
