Walked around Ardmore Point this lunchtime. Spent quite a lot of time sorting through the Curlews for Whimbrels but came to the conclusion that the only short-billed birds on offer were actually immature Curlews. Best birds were Wigeon, Red breasted Merganser and Eider bobbing on the waves, flocks of Goldfinches feeding on grassland and a probable Chichaff feeding in a small tree occupied by 7 Long tailed Tits. Drove home via Carman Reservoir which held around 50 Canada Geese and a couple of Coots.

"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".
