Heavy rain last night led to flooding on Arran and in the Borders. The Cart was in full spate and a rich brown colour this evening. The juvenile Mallards upstream from the first bridge have now banded together - there were 23 in one group alone. A Goldfinch was singing from the top of a tree next to Rosshall School. Earlier, the Mute Swan flock was close-in at Langbank [12,000].

"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".
