Gloucestershire in Pictures: RIAT and 2000trees
People have been looking to the skies over Gloucestershire as the Royal International Air Tattoo returned to the county. And while the crowds were arriving at Fairford, the clean-up was finishing at Cheltenham after the 2000trees festival. There was also the opening of a new shopping centre in Tewkesbury and new adventures for some penguins in the county. Look up: A multitude of aircraft have been entertaining the crowds at the Royal International Air Tattoo, including this - the Spanish Air & Space Force Eurofighter C.16 Typhoon. Heat haze: It was a hot weekend for all the music fans who headed to Upcote Farm in Cheltenham for the 2000trees festival. To the horizon: Weather watcher 'Stormin' took this photograph, which has a mystical feel, on an early morning trip out in Colesbourne. To the skies: The Royal International Air Tattoo is taking place this weekend at RAF Fairford. The event is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year - and the Red Arrows will be flying each day this weekend. Festival time: Gloucestershire took on Sussex Sharks at the College Ground in Cheltenham on Thursday as the county cricket side made its annual pilgrimage to the area, whose name it bears. Welcome aboard: Four new Humboldt penguin chicks at Birdland have entered an exciting new phase, as they have begun exploring their surroundings and meeting the rest of the colony at the park in Bourton-on-the-Water. Look at that view: A walk up Crickley Hill at Birdlip was rewarded with views for miles on a clear, sunny day. Shop till you drop: A brand new outlet centre has opened in Tewkesbury this week just off Junction 9 of the M5. They started building the Cotswold Design Outlet in 2023 - and it has now opened to the public. All things bright and beautiful: This was too good to miss off the list of highlights this week. The colourful image of a bee enjoying a visit to a bloom was taken in Framilode by weather watcher 'Spacewalker'. Crisp views: Weather watcher 'Andy B' took this image of a sunny morning with great views in Cam. Follow BBC Gloucestershire on Facebook, X and Instagram.
