Swifts back?

[burnhal]

Same day as last year- May 4th! They are well at home now patrolling the skies over my bit of bedfordshire. Are yours back yet?

[bensmum]

I haven't seen any yet this year. I will have to keep my eyes and ears open (south Hampshire)

None yet (Fife). Numbers locally have been declining over recent years - possibly because neighbours have done home renovations and the old nest sites may no longer exist.

Terraced street 2 to 3 stories high 120 yearsold, town centre.

Saw a load yesterday evening swooping low over Radipole lake in Weymouth. First ones I've seen this year.
Also saw my first ever Bearded Tits. Yes, that is a bird species...
