Five minutes down at Springfield Quay, Glasgow, revealed two Lesser Black backed Gulls, 10 Black headed Gulls (with lovely, chocolate-brown hoods) and a fishing Cormorant. Walking along the Cart (late afternoon) from Leverndale to Hawkhead turned up three Roe Deer (on the open space south of the "Tower"), plenty of singing Robin, Wren, Dunnock, Chaffinch, Blue Tit and Great Tit, several Blackbirds going to roost, a Great spotted Woodpecker (heard but not seen), a pair of Goosander and a pair and a half of Mallard, a Kingfisher (calling noisily from the park river bend before flying off upstream) and around 50 (?Herring) gulls gathering on the field behind the cemetery (the first time I've seen them there), but no Chiffchaffs or Willow Warblers as yet.

"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".
