Even later swallows - NOT amateur radio

Fenland sky today

Well, this is extraordinary.

Today along the River Cam, about 5 miles from Cambridge, I saw 3 more young swallows. It is Oct 4th 2015 today and this is weeks later than I have seen these locally before.

There are quite a few in Devon still but this is late for up here. Maybe it is because I am looking for them or these young birds are totally thrown by our mild,warm spell? Anyway, I was very pleased to see them today. There was no doubt that these were swallows, by their appearance, flight and movement in the air.

Maybe we should expect these summer birds to stay longer these days?  I used to think Sept 21st was late for this part of the UK, but today is October!
