The Ravens were flying over Leigh Woods just before I left the Peregrine Watch this morning, the heads of their chicks are appearing just above the nest top, whilst below them there are Jackdaws in the cliff crevasses, no doubt with their nests. The Ravens don't seem to worry about the Jackdaws, I think they would if there were Crows in the vicinity, or if a Sparrow Hawk was around! I had a fleeting glimpse of the Kestrel as she came in to the trees to the right of the Peregrine Watch. Earlier, and from Sea Walls, I could see a couple of dozen Redshank lining the mud, and the Ravens sitting over in the oaks frequented by the Peregrines.
