Today's train journey to Dundee produced fourteen Roe Deer in one field outside Croy, a Buzzard at Larbet and two Sparrowhawks (one displaying) over Perth. The purpose of the trip was to look for Winter Aconite in flower at Balmerino Abbey. The ground under the Horse Chestnuts there was covered with the plants, the flowers pushing through the snow. I was surprised at just how small they are. Nearby, two Tree Sparrows were at Bottomcraig.

"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".
