A cold, sunny day today meant quite a pleasant drive up from Greenock this afternoon. Passing Middleton Farm, noticed a flooded field had frozen over and various small birds (7 Pied Wagtails, 1 pipit (souunded like Meadow) and one bunting (possibly a female Reed) were picking food from the surface as it melted in the sun. Seven Whooper Swans were again on floods next to the Old Schoolhouse (see photo).

"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".
