    The three counted over our house on 1st May is now at least 11.

    Feeding like the clappers and occasionally screaming at each other.

    They're still gathering!

    Same thing here.6 has gone to 12+.Trying to count them is a task in itself.Went out 8.30pm-ish to watch them return to nest.Death defying speeds at nest entry.Some aborted inches from stone wall/gutter to go round again but not one crash - All with brakes fully off! Pipistrelles next door seemed fluttery and slow by comparison when they emerged later...Worra lovely day its been..ps Blackcap on next doors garage too.Didn`t know we had `em.Must start believing what my rspb paid up neighbour says!
