Single Buzzard padding about in the first Finlaystone meadow (among the sheep) at 10 am - still there on the way back at 12. The sight of Buzzards associating with sheep is becoming as familiar as that of egrets and cattle, or jacanas and crocodiles. I wonder what the Buzzard gets out of it. Maybe the sheep nibbling the grass attracts earthworms to the surface.

"The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls".
