Itโ€™s been a summer of swallows here at Gwydir. They still come in to say โ€˜helloโ€™ every morning. They particularly like the portrait of old Sir John Wynn & sit above the coat of arms- the three eagles of Owain Gwynedd. Eagles & swallows, in this instance, getting along just fine.

Help our irreplaceable swifts: book an in-person surgery appointment with your MP to persuade them to support โฆthe swift brick amendmentโฉ & email me at [email protected] so I can brief you. We can save them but only if we all work as a team.

pie charts showing what swifts eat. It's just a snap shot of what adults caught to feed the young in the days leading up to me collecting the droppings. It's just the top 10 insects in each sample #apusapus #commonswift #actionforswifts #swiftconservation #saveourswifts

At St. Anne's Church, one #Swift flew close past us with a loud "whoosh" to enter nest 1 as fast as an arrow! After a bit of a lull we saw and heard up to twenty Swifts screaming low over the junction of Western Road and Spital Road, #Lewes, before entries to nests 1, 2 and 3.

The past 66 years have seen ragwort demonised and removed in great swathes. Itโ€™s time to end the war on wildflowers. Especially as ragwort supports 100+ insect species, 27 of which rely on it exclusively. Read more ๐Ÿ‘‡ wtru.st/4lKVUJs

Screaming parties of 11 #Swifts around St. Anne's Church, #Lewes, and Kevin saw an entry to a 22nd nest space there. Nick saw a Swift go under the eaves at The Workshop in De Montfort Road and we saw a baby Blackbird sheltering nearby. Chicks doing well in King Henry's Road!

Excited we have these up just before the younger #swifts fly home. Hope we get viewings of these made-to-measure east-facing new builds with all mod cons, decent proportions, tasteful decor, welcoming swift sounds playing and friendly neighbours... #urbannature #saveourswifts
