A single House Martin was over south Cardonald this morning, the first I've seen here for a few weeks. In the evening, a trip to Gourock produced a Manx Shearwater and a Gannet off Kempock Point with 20 more manxies and another Gannet off McEnroy's Point. All were coping easily with a series of squalls scudding up the Clyde. In spite of the deteriorating weather, and the gathering gloom which accompanied it, five Swifts were chasing and calling over the Hawks v Greenock match at Fort Matilda.

"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".
