Fraid not Jacksparrow, I reported my first one over 3 weeks ago. In fact I believe it was April 10th. Am seeing lots more lately.
Re: SWIFTS, SWALLOWS AND HOUSE MARTINS
Three Swallows this morning, maybe that is them back. They are about two weeks late this year. Probably the lousy weather put them off.
Re: SWIFTS, SWALLOWS AND HOUSE MARTINS
Seen at least a half dozen swifts today while out for a walk.

I got very excited today as I thought my Swifts had returned but it was a false alarm as the Swifts I did see were clearly en route elsewhere as they were all gone by 4 pm.
Re: SWIFTS, SWALLOWS AND HOUSE MARTINS
As stated, Swallows were two weeks late this year. Saw first Swifts today - bang on time.

My Swifts are definitely back today. That's two days earlier than last year.
