Just seen the first few in the distance over Fishers Lane. Earlier than usual. FYI Catherine/Jon if you are checking in.

I'm sure I saw some flying near the barn-like structure in Syon Park a good couple of weeks ago. Or could they have been swallows? Do swifts and swallows arrive at more or less the same time of year?

Just checked on an RSPB forum and someone saw swallows a month ago. I think they arrive first.

According to one Facebook group, they have also just appeared in Leicester, Oldham, North Norfolk and Suffolk today.
I saw a solitary one over Bedford Park yesterday afternoon. It moved off southwards during 5 minutes flying - quite high. Probably just a scout.

They are certainly active over the East Chiswick skyline. Lovely to see.
