I was up at the peregrine watch each day around 10.30-11.00 am. The weather became warmer over these days, but with lots of rain and wind. No raptors - except that I may have seen a peregrine come in to land on the cliff on Sunday, it was over in a fraction of a second. A larger group of 'birders' were there Sunday - how they ever see anything I don't know, they perch themselves on the grass and well back from the edge of the cliff. On Sunday the jackdaws congregated in their tree, a couple of elegant little birds watched me carefully, their strong black head caps catching the sunlight. One of the jackdaws has a lot of white breast feathers, and some in its wings as well. On the river: Sunday a group of ducks paddled around the edge of the river; Monday a large flock of gulls floated in the middle of the river, floating slowly downstream with the outgoing tide. The ducks were in the same place each day!
