The journey south from Pitlochry took place in warmer weather and produced the first House Martins of the trip. A brief stop at Corrymucklock led to some good inland wader records including three pairs of Lapwings and one each of Oystercatcher, Curlew and Snipe. The drive through Glendevon added Reed Bunting to the trip list. At Crieff, flowering plants included Ramsons, Bluebells, Sweet Cecily, White Dead-nettle, Variegated Dead-nettle, Stitchwort and Chickweed. At Tilliecoultry, an Oystercatcher was looking like it was nesting in a car park.

"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".
