The first swallow of the year flew in on Sunday, shortly followed by another. They paid particular attention to the lean-to where we found an old nest on one of the beams when the roof was taken off in December. Since the swallows left last autumn the lean-to now has a new roof, windows and floor so must have seemed like when one goes back to somewhere where you grew up and find it has changed almost beyond recognition.
A small flock of house martins flew in over the pond on Tuesday in the midst of a rain storm and 50kmh winds - they must have thought they'd taken a wrong turning somewhere on the route from Africa !
