J Darcy 5,871 Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 I saw some swallows and house martins yesterday...seems bloody late for them to be about..anyone else seen them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Bull Cross Posted October 1, 2005 Report Share Posted October 1, 2005 I saw thousands of them a fortnight ago in Egypt ,,, when i got home there was some stragglers in the out biuldings. The last one i saw was about 4 days ago . These were from a very late second clutch in one of the biuldings in the garden. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Snelly 0 Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 There are still quite a few in Sussex. In fact, a house near me has a second brood still being fed in the nest under their eaves. I was thinking only yesterday that it was about time they all headed south. Snelly Quote Link to post Share on other sites
