A remarkable morning for raptors saw six 
Red Kites share the sky at the same time over CF. Also rather unexpected was a pair of 
Peregrines engaged in a food pass. A walk along Chipstead Downs revealed a 
Rook, a 
Greenfinch and seven 
Swifts, while a local male 
Kestrel was showing well.
It was probably a little drafty for most butterflies' liking but singles of 
Comma and 
Common Blue were noted, along with three 
Meadow Browns.
