A walk up through Dollar Glen and out onto Bank Hill produced an assortment of common woodland species including Willow Warbler, Chaffinch, Blackcap, Song Thrush, Blackbird and the common tit species. A Buzzard was over the woods with Meadow Pipits and Carrion Crows on the hill. Back in Dollar, a Pied Wagtail was feeding on the lawns of the academy and a Dipper was feeding a fledged juvenile on Caddis Fly larvae. Flowering plants consisted of: Bluebell; Broom; Daisy; Dandelion; Dog Violet; Gorse; Herb Robert; Primrose; Red Campion; Speedwell; Stitchwort; Wild Garlic; Woodruff and Wood Sorrell. The only Butterfly was a male Orange-tip.

"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".
