A family trip to Rouken Glen Park allowed a small amount of casual birdwatching. The Mute Swans on the pond have eight large cygnets. Nearby were three big Coot chicks and a Moorhen with two tiny young. Meanwhile a pair of Little Grebes were incubating on a floating nest anchored to a mooring buoy.

"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".
