Lots of activity from the #ŚląskaSwifts this morning - I’m going for a walk as I can’t concentrate on my work! I close the windows when I go out - don’t want anyone to think my study’s a nest site 🙀 Certainly not with 2 cats about! #swifts #swiftconservation #Szczecin

Another pair reunited this afternoon. The first returned on April 28th but didn't show again until last night. This one was ringed on 14/07/2020. Both are established long time breeders.

They haven't been together for 9 months. A bit of unease can be expected

Remember our Swift event in #Blairgowrie tomorrow - everyone welcome.

Hmm I don’t think I’m going to get much work done this morning … too many distractions! 😹 #ŚląskaSwifts #swifts #swiftconservation #Szczecin

Another active day at the #ŚląskaSwifts nestboxes - this time in slo-mo. They can turn mid-air on a penny! Amazing flying skills 😻😻😻 #swifts #swiftconservation #apusapus #TheFeatherSpeech (I’m trying) #Szczecin #BirdsOfTwitter

Found out through a family Xmas card that my cousin twice removed in Liverpool is a fellow #swift enthusiast and wrote this beautiful booklet! 😁

Still lots of activity at the #ŚląskaSwifts nestboxes! Funny how they always bang at the occupied ones - come on, guys! There are three empty ones right next door! 😺Meanwhile, looks like no. 6 chick has fledged 😻 #swifts #FirstBirdOfMyDay #swiftconservation

If I'm reading this correctly the swift has suffered another drop. Their 60% decline is now down to 75% decline. Compulsory nest bricks has to happen soon

Something on their box scared the love birds

How to know when a swift is about to lay its first egg? They poop in their nest site

Swift Project update! Super exciting to have 17 nestboxes with 34 cavities up on the Machynlleth Co-op store - a collaboration forged by Elfyn Pugh over the last year. We had a stall inside today to engage with people around #SwiftConservation , and have a banner outside too!

Now it’s finally stopped raining & our #ŚląskaSwifts parents are busy making up for lost time today! Here’s one from box 3 coming into land with a tasty morsel that you can see quite clearly 😻 #swiftconservation #swifts

Great to see Swift Bricks installed at new apartment block in centre of Drogheda, Louth.
Now if Louth County Council made it mandatory for all new builds to have Bee and Swift bricks installed it would be even better. #Swiftconservation

Come along to #Blairgowrie library this morning to welcome our wonderful #Swifts back home. We will be there as part of the new #Blairgowrie SwiftProject & I bet these beauties will be screaming over the Wellmeadow! #SwiftConservation Scott Shanks 🦋 Swift Awareness Week Blairgowrie Advertis
