Swifts are out in force in Welshpool tonight! No nests found but saw 40/50+ feeding over the town centre area! And a cloud that looks like a swift! Can't believe they'll be gone in a week or so 😓 #TheFeatherSpeech
Another active day at the #ŚląskaSwifts nestboxes - this time in slo-mo. They can turn mid-air on a penny! Amazing flying skills 😻😻😻 #swifts #swiftconservation #apusapus #TheFeatherSpeech (I’m trying) #Szczecin #BirdsOfTwitter

The swifts are back! (Excuse the noisy parakeet!) So great to see them although less in number in our area cf with last year.
They are remarkable and will hopefully nest in a newly constructed swift box 🤞

Five days on from #thefeatherspeech debate on Swift bricks, Hannah Bourne-Taylor and I met up Global Birdfair to talk about what happened and why it mattered! It’s a simple change to make and will help these Red-listed species and many more!
Volume up… no microphone 🍁!

So pleased to help Hannah Bourne-Taylor hand in her swift petition to UK Prime Minister today.
Such a simple step to help one of our most iconic birds. With cross party support, we hope for Government support for action in the debate later.

Swift bricks in Hatfield, Hertford, St Albans and Stevenage - starting to appear in various parts of Hertfordshire thanks to hard work from Herts & Middlesex Wildlife Trust and local Swift groups. Want to see more like this? Sign the petition petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6267… #hertsbirds #thefeatherspeech
Beharrlich. Oje.^^
In video: A swift flies towards my window and, again, tries to climb over my already opened window probably expecting some kind of nesting posibility on the other side of the frame or on top.
