The canal towpath between Falkirk and Polmont first thing produced 18 singing Chiffchaffs (plus two Willow Warblers and a Blackcap). Other highlights of a sunny day spent exploring the area between Falkirk, Grangemouth, Bo'ness and Linlithgow included singing Skylark, drumming Great Spotted Woodpecker, nesting Rook, Mute Swan and Coot and my first Peacock butterfly of the year (near the curling pond).

"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".
