I've noticed them building in number in feeding flocks over the back of my house near Bedford - they seem to be moving in general southerly movements. If i remember rightly it was 11th August last year my last sighting. Sad to see them go - they are my indicator of high summer...
We had had a couple of Swifts hanging about, but this was two day ago.
Now it is quiet of all their little chirrups. Swallows, Swifts, and House Martins
Hope that their journey is problem free, and they make it back to the UK next year.
Bless them
Kathy and Dave

There still seem to be quite a few 'hangers on' in my area (Ampthill, Beds) - they were feeding high up in the warm weather yesterday evening. I didn't watch for long but I saw at least 10.
I was in Suffolk at the weekend and saw loads of them - lots of swallows too.
