Swifts at risk and Swift Bricks

theguardian.com/environment/20

Swift populations slumped by 66% between 1995 and 2022 in Britain and have continued a rapid downward trend. Since the last count of 59,000 breeding pairs, the population this summer is set to be just 40,000 pairs. In five years’ time, there could be fewer than 25,000.

We have Swifts, House Martins and bats competing for the insects around us in the twilight. Lovely to watch.
