The Spring is nearly over....

[aromulus]

Has anyone noticed something very strange yet....?:Erm:

We are nearly at the end of May, and I haven't seen any swallows, Swifts, and House martins....:Erm:

It may seem trivial to some, but usually their arrival and joyous chirping announces summer is near.....:rolleyes:

All down south, this year on my jogs i have noticed far more birds. Although loads more magpies which i belive are not that popular in the bird world.

Irobot..." Sunny Different From The Rest..." :Britain:

I Agree with the rest here down in good ole Somerset....Loads of swallows here mate, but we cheat a bit being in the rural countryside, I think they fly up the Bristol Channel and turn right,I always do have a look out and try see the very first one of the year. But if your at the right spot you can see them coming in from the Bristol Channel in a constant stream.For me the more interesting birds which just about makes my day when I see them is the ...Goldfinch,Bullfinch,Kingfisher...

I have had Goldfinch Mules ( Song Birds - a cross of Goldfinch x Canary and ref the word mule means = Mule as a term used to describe a none fertile Bird a cross of two different sub-species where as a hybrid is not and is fertile....) and my last songbird was a little Siskin Mule and it sang it`s heart out Gerrrrrrr !!:omg: at first light and all day and dusk he he he.... Phil..
