Some interesting sights during today's walk along the river in south Cardonald consisted of: two Kingfishers calling near what I suspect is a nest site; a Moorhen with two half-grown chicks on the Moulin weir; a Carrion Crow panting (in temperatures of around 27 degrees centigrade) on a rooftop; three Chiffchaffs (including two together) calling from cover; a large flock of gulls (Black-headed and Lesser Black-backed) feeding on flying insects and the first Collared Dove I've seen for a couple of weeks.

"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".
