@ukhousemartins.bsky.social chicks from our one nest of house martins have just hatched! Next door chicks just fledged 😊. They are earlier this year - time for another brood 🤞🤞

🪹 14 artificial nest cups (ANCs) for house martins are now up at Ludgrove School in Wokingham. A great collaborative project between BBOWT, @ukhousemartins.bsky.social‬, and the school 🤝

First of 3 House Martin double cups have gone up today. After unexpectedly seeing a pair prospecting the sides of the house last week, I thought it best! 😅 Here’s to the start of a new colony! (Hopefully🤞) @ukhousemartins.bsky.social

From our friends,'Save our Suffolk Swifts' on X

"Apologies for straying off topic but the first House Martins and Swallows are now arriving back & Suffolk is bone dry. If you have an open area create a mud splat and keep it moist until we have rain if you can. Here is a big splat in Woolpit!"

First House Martins back to the local colony near St Albans, Herts today. Four appeared at lunchtime. Just for a moment a local Buzzard made me think I was in Cornwall!

Surveying for the UK-wide Woodlark Survey threw a big surprise with 5 birds just 1km from my front door in Thetford in fallow field opposite a supermarket! Was convinced that square wouldn't have any
