Today's walk was a long one - from the centre of Cumbernauld to Kirkintilloch. Birds were quite good with some of the best being four Yellowhammers perched together on a straw bale and eight Stock Doves feeding with Feral Pigeons on the stubble below. Broadwood Loch had Wigeon, Dabchick, Great-Crested Grebe and five Cormorants. Twechar Marsh had Greylag and Canada Geese plus a single Great Black-backed Gull and an immature Common Gull. Good selections of fungi and berry-bearing shrubs were the botanical highlights.

"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".
