One of the features of this time of year around Cardonald is the number of gulls (mostly Black-headed but some Herring) which winter here. They have learned to descend on the local schools at break times, presumably to scavenge discarded food. This lunchtime there were at least 50 in a cloud over Paisley road West near Lourdes Secondary School.

"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".
