The day started with clear blue skies over Linlithgow. The farmland near there was full of life with singing Skylarks, both House and Tree Sparrows, a pair of Stock Doves, a Kestrel, a Buzzard and a possible Grey Partridge calling from cover. Over at Kinneil, two Jackdaws, three Jays and 20 Jackdaws were presumably mobbing a hidden predator, and making a terrific racket in the process. Photos (below) are of the Cormorant Island in Linlithgow Loch, the views east and northwest from Airngath Hill, and a really nice cafe in Bo'ness.

"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".
