The plan for today was to visit some of the lochs in the north east of Glasgow. The weather turned out to be favourable and the result was a good list of (mostly common birds). Some of the highlights were at Frankfield Loch and included four Ringed Plovers and the long-staying Blue-winged Teal. The grassy area to the south of Frankfield Loch proved to be excellent for insects with a Common Green Lacewing the highlight. The most notable bird at Hogganfield Loch was a single Pink-footed Goose while the most notable insect was a Plume Moth.

"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".
