Spent the morning in Ayr and the afternoon in Dunoon. En route between the two, single Common Buzzards were over the three towns bypass and Fairlie Lagoon. Passing through Greenock, two Swifts were screaming at rooftop height along Ardgowan Street. The ferry crossing was unremarkable but two Common Sandpipers were alarm-calling at a picnic site south of Dunoon and a pair of Ravens laboured past the venue on Bullwood Road. Heading home, two Guillemots were off Hunter's Quay taking my year total to 135 species, the same number as my previous best for the whole year (2008).

"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".
