None as yet, here in Wigan. Haven't been looking really. I'm sure they are due any day.
If it's not outdoors it's not worth watching.
The boys and I were lucky enough to see 2 yesterday on the West Arm of Brighton Marina there were there for around 5 minutes catching all the little bugs that were flying around, 1 of them came within 6 or 7 feet it was lovely.

Just a nudge in the direction of Birdtrack to all swallow spotters, make your observations count towards the national records!
Also the Birdlife International/RSPB Spring Alive website is worth a look, as a nation we have been pretty slow to record the influx of swallows on this Europe wide project!!!

A bunch of them have just flown over our pond in Wiltshire - Sherston. 16.00 hrs.
One lonely Swallow to report over Wigan Flashes this evening. Not the first reported for the area.

Our regulars have arrived today which nest under Turks boat pier, Kingston-on-Thames. Great to have them back. They're already setting up home - in and out under the decking like yo-yos.

Seriously thinking about trying harder!
Numbers slowly increasing along the corridor from Wigan to Pennington Flash ( Leeds L.Pool canal Leigh branch)
Any more Swallow sightings?
Mine are many days overdue now.

We were out and about this afternoon, but still no signs of Swallows in south Aberdeenshire.
Here are a couple I saw today a few miles from Harewood House. I also saw a few more but these were still and easier to capture (even though they were across a field!)
