Friday 1st September

Later this am, I left the peregrine watch at 9.50. Occasional light drizzle on the wind, but also sunshine through grey clouds. The Avon Gorge was very quiet, with only gulls, a few jackdaws, and pigeons. As usual the pigeons were scuttling around, they fly over the river and into the trees in Leigh Woods, and up and down the gorge, always fast and as if they are being chased! I have seen a peregrine chase a jackdaw, and another try to attack a gull, but never seen a pigeon taken. The jackdaw tree was mostly empty, but a noisy group came in just after I arrived. However no peregrine this morning.
