[Other Sport] Anyone seen any swifts?

[Curious Orange]

Spotted a couple flying around when I was in the garden the other day. Tried to point them out to Junior Orange... who was entirely disinterested.

Not curious then!

House Martin's haven't been back to our way since Covid. Previously regular visitors.

Didn't they disband in 1988?

Finally heard and saw them screaming over Preston Drove on Sunday - the latest I've seen them since I started recording in 2009.
Summer has arrived.

Yay, just heard my first swifts of 2024. Summer's here. Officially.

 

[Zeberdi]

They were back here on 1 May - too early to start their screaming parties yet though.

No Swifts I'm aware of in BN43, I am very concerned about the lack of bats though( daft one 2 doors down aside)

There's been plenty of ariel fodder this week but haven't seen one yet . . .nor last year . . . 2 years ago there were loads

Robins good though.

Landed in Bn2 a couple of days ago. (Well, didn't really land, they don't do that much).
