The first bird of the day was an Oystercatcher heard passing over the house at 00:40, presumably a failed breeder heading back down to the coast. Two Black Guillemots were chasing eachother around the bay at the east end of Greenock Esplanade this lunchtime. The Mute Swans there have at least five eggs. Meanwhile two Swifts were overhead nearby.

"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".
