Sighting Description

I've had an excellent response to my request for sending me the addresses of houses where Swifts have been nesting this year. There has recently been good coverage of the need to help protect the nest sites of Swifts with the national newspapers and radio being used. The RSPB is now involved in helping to protect these birds. As soon as the juveniles are old enough, Swifts will be leaving our skies for warmer countries within the next month, so please see if there are any more sites around in your area that need to be recorded. If ever their nest sites are destroyed they will not return. Their wonderful calls which mean summer is here will be gone forever. Either send in your records through the usual channels or send direct to me at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
