That's great Gwen, I heard they are getting later and later every year - think it was on Springwatch last week.

Someone said they thought they saw one around here yesterday, but I haven't yet.

I'm waiting for the Martins, they nest in the Grandstand Roof at the Cricket Club, been there for years and it's so nice watching them.

Someone's giving me the nod so will drive over there for a few photos soon.
