Five pairs of Black Guillemots plus two single birds were close in off the east end of Greenock Esplanade this lunchtime. So engrossed were they in their courtship displays that they completely ignored the passers by a few metres away. Interestingly, the Mute Swan pair which appeared to have been flooded out a few weeks ago have resumed nesting on the little beach at the corner of the esplanade wall. .

"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".
