Tuesday April 29th

There was a fire over beside the water in Avonmouth, the orange-red flames were visible just under the motorway bridge, the smoke attracted attention, then a buzzard swung into view! It was silhouetted against the smoke and sky. Over by the Peregrine Watch the male Peregrine flew past on a couple of occasions, he is a dark large bird, so there is a fine view as he passes to and from the nest. Over on the Raven's nest the youngsters are flying around a little, one went as far as the quarry, at other times they sit on the side of the nest, in the neighbouring Whitebeam, or Silver Birch. I may have had a glimpse of the Kestrel from Sea Walls.
