Info Post
Young cuckoo perched beneath the car park and a little further along a young kestrel was sat preening on a stump, it then had a fly around before settling again. A female kestrel on the higher path later. Couple of wheatear on the top by the kestrel box. On the way down whilst scanning the clearfell area, just passed the private track to Pantmaenog House, a quail shot out from under my feet before quickly dropping back into cover. Next up a group of 3 peregrines appeared taking in the evening air, a sparrowhawk made the mistake of getting too close and was pursued by one of the adults, the sparrowhawk finding sanctuary in a stand of trees beneath the quarries. Before the adult could re-join the others a band of crows thought they'd have some fun and began harassing it. The peregrine rolled and kept them at a respectable distance - the crows then drifted off settling on the fence line and started making a racket - a fox was working its way through the vegetation above the quarry.
