This morning's walk through south west Glasgow was again characterised by a large number of singing birds. Robins were most prominent (they seem to be everywhere this autumn) but others included Wren, Woodpigeon and a single Blackcap. Two Grey Wagtails were present on the Cart and a Hooded Crow x Carrion Crow was in the usual place in Pollok Park. House Sparrows were notable by their absence. I am convinced they move away to exploit different food sources (perhaps on local farmland) at this time of the year.

"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".
