The settled weather of late broke overnight and the rain was never far away all day. However winds remained light. A "Willow-Chiff" was working the hedge outside the office window for much of the morning. At lunchtime a colleague arrived to say she had seen at least 10 Pied Wagtails in Well Park in the centre of Greenock. Heading home, a long-tailed, Buzzard-sized raptor flew across the M8 near the Erskine slips. Arkleston Farm had clouds of Goldfinches, Starlings and Swallows.

"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".
