Two Redshank were feeding on the mud below Sea Walls, one close by, and with glinting red lags in the sunshine, the other was much further down the estuary towards Avonmouth. Apart from another (maybe the same one) begging Herring Gull, nothing of note. I don't see many Swallows or swifts, so maybe they are back off to Africa? No peregrines were visible, a hopeful birder had set up his 'scope at the Peregrine Watch.
