Very True

But it takes them 7 months to get here

Pretty Poor Velocity lol

Can't be 7 month lol then it would take 7 month to get back to Africa that's 14 lol plus there here for 3 that's 17 plus the time they spend over there lol.

Not seen any here yet ,also not seen any wee birds either ,apart from starlings blackbirds the odd robin ,wren and house sparrow and I do mean the ODD ONE . Sad that the RSPB blame everything but the real problem .

Living on the Forth and Clyde canal with a few old buildings around which they have frequented the last couple of years I have been here, nothing has arrived as yet. What I did notice the other morning was a very large flock of Geese head into the North West no doubt to their breeding grounds.

First pair of swallows arrived here at Lock 16 F&C Canal on Monday 27th and been watching them every morning sweeping the canal when I am limping along with the dogs. Dont think their can be much feeding for them as its still bitterly cold and as yet they have not been lifting mud for nest building. The blackbirds in my garden are now building their second nest in another of my hedges after successfully rearing 3 youngsters in their first but unfortunately my Border X Patterdale terrier Jill has spied their endeavours and will be climbing up through the hedge to create havoc whenever my back is turned.

Seen my first one just the other day , was in Majorca Monday to Wednesday seen plenty of swifts ,thought to myself are they staying here or are they just stopping off before carrying on North ,maybe even up to Scotland . Oh and loads of small birds ,not like here still hardly any about .
