Swifts 2016

Well looks like it has been another successful year for my annual Swift visitors, while they have not fledged yet they all look healthy and happy.  Here are a few photos to show their progression from ugly chicks to almost ready to leave the nest.

Yet again I have had some chick that prefer to sit in the loft insulation rather than the nest when they got a little bigger, although this year I think it was on of the parents just wanting a little space.

Now they are just about ready to leave the nest and start on their long journey down to the South Sahara.
