A mixed week, weather-wise, with a very cold snap on Monday and Tuesday (during which, most of the remaining leaves on the trees dropped off), milder weather on Wednesday, high winds overnight (even the Wheelie Bins blew over - the first time I've seen that since moving to the glade), then cold again today (with snow further East). Down in Ayrshire on Tuesday. No Kestrels or Buzzards about, but a small, long tailed raptor flew across the M77 near Fenwick - probably a Sparrowhawk, but just possibly a Merlin.

"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".
