A female Tawny Owl was calling next to the house for the second night this week. At least four House Martins were over their colony at Oldhall. Later, a visit to Mugdock Park produced numerous Peacock Butterflies (along the path to the reservoir and on a buddleia bush at the centre), a few Painted Lady butterflies and a single Darter sp dragonfly.

"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".
