SWALLOWS

The Swallows have arrived back, and have decided to start nest building in my shed which gave me a good opportunity to get a few shots as they continually fly back and forth with nesting material. The first bird came in on April 9th and was  quickly followed by two others.

This Willow Warbler was in fine voice and is another summer resident which visits us every year.

Still some summer migrants yet to arrive but the nesting season is now well and truly under-way with quite a few of my boxes being occupied and I hope to bring you news of these shortly.
