    Default Nest bound swallows nearing mid September

    Spotted these in the tall porch of a new build in Hampshire, very surprised to see them at this late stage.

    Well spotted, Rolf! They will have to fly off soon, but look really young still.

    Maybe their later fledging will help if the weather is fine though - and if those horrid people who shoot them down over Malta/other may have gone away.
