Swallow, Swift & Martin watch 2018

Just seen my first Swallows of the year flying in over Braunton marshes.

I saw my first curlew yesterday. My favourite bird.

I hope my regular Martin family come back. I forgive them the mess they make on my windowsill as I get rewarded with their spectacular evening flights.

New this year is a family of Starlings in a little pocket of the roof we share with the neighbours.
