Bristol in Pictures: It's a new dawn, a new day

Early risers were rewarded with this lovely sunrise over Clevedon Marine Lake on Saturday

Temperatures have risen in time for the summer solstice this weekend.

Many people have been out soaking up the rays and we have had some gorgeous sunny scenes to wake up to.

Early start: Paddleboarders took to the water just after 04:00 BST on Saturday to mark the solstice with a mass dawn paddle organised by watersports company SUP.

Happy anniversary: Care provider St Monica Trust held a huge garden party with cream cakes, strawberries and Pimms to mark 100 years since it first opened its doors in Westbury on Trym in 1925.

Making a splash: It was only last Sunday that thousands of people lined the harbourside to watch teams enter their homemade creations in the first ever Bristol Birdman competition.

Winners: The specialist debt team from Citizens Advice South Gloucestershire has been named the Debt Team of the Year by the Institute of Money Advisers. It is the third year in the row the Yate-based team, made up of Yvonne Parks, Eliza Hirst, Linda Mullholland and Angus Macdonald, has either been shortlisted or won an award.

Ahoy: This group of sailors made the most of the weather and took to Bristol harbour in their boats.

A young endangered Philippine spotted deer, Maliit, at Bristol Zoo Project

A young endangered Philippine spotted deer has been photographed at Bristol Zoo Project. Maliit is an extremely rare and tiny deer fawn. There are thought to be fewer than 700 Philippine spotted deer left in the wild.

It has been a scorcher of a week, and as we approached the longest day of the year one of our Weather Watchers sent in this beautiful picture of a late sunset over homes in Weston-super-Mare.

University of Bristol students celebrated taking part in a programme of specialist start-up training at a special event on Wednesday evening. Participants in the scheme have the opportunity to pitch their business idea, with the winners granted £8,000 of funding.
