Devils Punchbowl 29th 13:00 - 16:00

Short-eared Owl:  6 possibly 8 birds, both m & f first appearing between 14:35 and 14:50.   Hunting, perching on shrubs, posts and ground plus mock(?) fighting.  Constant unforgetable views of owls, all around my position, from below, above and side.
Peregrine:  1 arrived from North 15:27, had a go at SEO, before 4 owls instantly responded in kind!  Followed by no further sightings of either species by sunset.
Kestrel: 2; Buzzard: 5; Red Kite: 3; Stonechat: 3; Mipit and Linnet heard.  Merlin... No show.
