We visited West Stow today with 2 of our young grandchildren. This is a reconstructed Anglo-Saxon village. We heard a goldcrest and the first cuckoo whilst there, but saw neither. A cuckoo is a sign if the return of spring. I have yet to see house martins or swifts and have only seen 2 swallows so far this spring.
Hi Roger,
ReplyDeletewe have House Martins return every year to a nest in out eaves. They returned a couple of days ago and are leaving their calling cards all over my car that is parked underneath, on well, they keep our cat on her toes with all their coming and goings.

Thanks Ken. There are definitely fewer of these around these days.
