Spent most of my annual leave day treading the pavements of Sauchiehall Street and Buchanan Street. However an evening walk along a partially frozen Kelvin (from Kelvinbridge to North Kelvinside) turned up a few interesting sightings. A Dipper was plunging bravely into the freezing water from the bank just north of the gate to the Botanic Gardens arboretum. Two Tufted Ducks and two Moorhens were in the same general area while there were Long tailed Tit flocks at three sites and a single Siskin at one.

"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".
