Temp 13°C to 21°C - Sunny spells with the odd deluge of rain but only a bit more cloud towards evening. The moderate breeze was mainly from the west with gusts to 29mph.
The Desert Wheatear was favouring the weedy side of the path near the playing fields at Somerdale in Keynsham, and regularly perched on the fence. Please note both car parks require payment 24 hours a day and have APNR, so you will get a ticket if you don’t pay. The bird was seen at this Location .
