A rain-free day today meant plenty of fresh air and natural connections. A morning walk in Bellahouston Park was brightened up by 18 Redpolls feeding in the treetops. Later, popped down to Auchenharvie Loch in Stevenston. Fantastic views of the Scaup flock there, with 71 (in various plumages) mixed in with 8 Tufted Ducks. Further along the coast a Great black backed Gull was feeding on a stranded fish. Later again, watched a pair of Ravens bringing sticks to a cliff nest and fending off a pair of Buzzards.

"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".
