Four Ravens were flying lazily around over Leigh Woods, if this is 'Family Raven' I wondered where the fifth was, especially since it was difficult to distinguish the youngsters from their parents. What took place next could mean that a Peregrine has had one of the young Ravens. The male Peregrine appeared, he certainly took great exception to all four Ravens, launching a series of swoop attacks; no feathers flew but the Ravens all retreated towards Bristol. The Peregrine swooped down to his nest on the cliff below me, he folded his wings as in a swoop for the last few meters - an angry bird?!
