The whole soundscape of the west end of Greenock has changed with the arrival this week of the Common Gulls. Their high-pitched, mewing calls seem to grab the attention much more than the repetetive squawking of the larger gull species. A walk down to the esplanade found only a single Shag on the choppy water.

"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".
