Wednesday, Thursday, 27th & 28th September



Back from a short holiday in Cornwall, we visited the Eden Project twice, it is a magical place which reminds me of the old Bristol Exploratory - before it was asset stripped and closed top open the plastic monstrocity that is @Bristol! We saw a lot of birds, a lone buzzard circling over the Eden domes, and a fine little egret near to St Michael's Mount.

Back to Bristol and my morning cycle rides. Wednesday was very windy, with a stiff breeze blowing down the River. The jackdaws were having a great time, swooping, diving and careering around at high speed. A whole large flock of them flew very low (feet) above the road just as I arrived. No sign of any raptors on either morning.
