A Sparrowhawk was yickering from the birch woods next to the house while a Chiffchaff called and three House Martins (incredibly rare this year) fed overhead. An evening walk along the river produced all the usual suspects plus a toadlet crossing the path and a Large Yellow-underwing in a privet hedge. Arriving back at the house at 21:45, ten Swifts screamed high overhead.

"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".
