Swallows.

13/9/09.
Large flocks of Swallows building up all over the area, will soon be joining together to fly south.
A Whitethroat along the coast path another species which will soon be on its way to Africa.
14/9/09.
Flocks of Swallows even bigger today, a Peregrine flew down the valley this morning.
15/9/09.
Treverven, more Swallows plus a Whitethroat on the way there this morning, a Newt in the garden.
16/9/09.
Took a walk today up past the hotel and over the moors to the coast path, at Chygurno picked up a male Slowworm off the road and moved it to safety in the hedge.
A Green Woodpecker by Sara,s bungalow probably feeding on Ants in the short grass.
Common Lizard on the coast path between Carn Barges and the stream, to quick to get a photo.
2 Ravens flying along the coast in the same area.
Walking back through the woods there was a Gray Wagtail on the stream and by the bridge near Edmund,s house a Dipper flew up the river.
17/9/09.
A grey Heron flew up the valley this morning probably trying to get down to the stream to catch a Trout or two, they have some difficulty getting down through the trees until the leaves have fallen sufficiently to give them clear access.
19/9/09
Today a Kestrel along the coast path was a welcome sight as I have,nt seen one for some time and they did,nt nest in the quarry this year, male Stonechat near Tremellyn.
20/9/09,
After a long time without a sighting of a Kestrel another one flew over the garden around midday
Goldcrest in the garden also a young Goldfinch.
