The frost of the past 48 hours thawed overnight to reveal a mild but murky winter's day. A return visit to the area around Cardonald Cemetery found loads of birds including 50 or more Redwings searching for food among fallen leaves (joined by a single Fieldfare and three Mistle Thrushes), singing Blue Tit, Robin and Woodpigeon, feeding flocks of Siskins and three Bullfinches.

"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".
