Hi liverbird
thats great, good news.
I have not seen the ones who nest in my sister barns yet, i will keep a look out for them, hopfully they won't be to long now.
Hey farmer, farmer, put away the D.D.T now. Give me spots on my apples, but leave me the birds and the bees, please!
Nice, we're usually between 10th and 17th before we get them locally. In Galloway think the first sighting are usually 5th -7th according to OH notebooks. Will be down there at the weekend so our eyes as ever will be skyward.
All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy. Spike Milligan
I too have seen my first Swallow of the year this afternoon. Was a nice sight - it means more Swallows, other summer birds...and better weather are on their way! :o)
Yes, willow warblers soon as well. Ooo I just love Spring.

Hi liverbird,
I have also seen my first Swallow, driving home from Catterick.
I also saw my first Sand Martin at Bowesfield Marsh - Stockton on Tees.

I saw two in Rickmansworth, flying around some stables. Then they sat on some overhead wires and twittered away. Even with grey clouds and rain, that sound just transported me to summer, fantastic.
Toadflax.
I'm stll looking - and I'm not that far away from you Toadflax. I think I need to get outside more.
The necessity of bird-watching is a really good reason for avoiding all forms of housework.
The dust will still be there tomorrow - the birds may not be!
Just saw my first swallow 17.15 at Kinneil Lagoon near Bo'ness Scotland
