OT: Swift Watch

It seems you can set your calendar by the swifts. For the third year in a row, my first sighting of them has been on 10 May. No sign of them on Sunday or Monday but first thing this morning on my cycle to the station, 3 of the beauties racing about.

Karen - Borrowed, perhaps, but a lovely shot! Thanks for sharing :-).

Fascinating! Their clock does not seem to be related to the weather, as it must have been different on the 3 10ths of Mays.
