On the 18th July:

1997

On a sound recording trip to the Picos de Europa Mountains in Northwest Spain.

2004

A visit to New Passage where in with the 200+ Black-headed Gulls, by the edge of the estuary, was an adult Mediterranean Gull and a Black Tern, when a Kestrel flew over the tern began to mob it, chasing it around for a couple of minutes before the Kestrel moved off, none of the other birds paid any notice to the falcon, strange that the tern did.

2007

At Black Rock Quarry in Portishead there were 4 Peregrines, a Kestrel, a Buzzard and 2 Ravens.
