And colder again today (6 degrees), although the outlook for next week is warmer (up to 27 degrees). The birds in Paisley are getting on with their breeding cycles. A Goldfinch was scavenging material from an old nest while its mate looked on. One of the local Ravens with a full crop flew up to the nest (presumably the male going to feed the sitting female, although hatching took place on 4th April last year so there may be chicks by now).

"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".
