@M_Z_Harrison If you find a grounded swift, always follow these golden rules: Put it in a lidded, ventilated box in a safe place. Don’t attempt to release it and NEVER release from an upstairs window or attempt to throw it. Don’t feed it. For specialist help: https://t.co/wXRxdH2XQ1

@Birder_Griffon @vikingoptical @WildlifePete @MarkAvery @BirdWatchingMag @polyolbion @birdbrainuk @spanish_nature @IoloWilliams2 @SaveourSwifts Our birds will now be over the rain forest. In a few weeks they’ll be getting ready to cross the desert. Excited to see what gps info they bring back this year!

@nestdivert a company in N Ireland trying their best to further the decline of the house martin. It's bird of conservation concern with its 47% decline yet so many people do their best to interfere.

@MarkAvery @AfSwifts @SaveourSwifts A question for everyone commenting

Why don't you put up swift nest boxes?

Why can't more schools be this swift-friendly?!

From our daughter's newsletter:
"Swift Awareness week was held in June & the English, MFL & Art Department offered swift awareness lessons to raise awareness of these amazing birds. We even appointed four swift champions in year 7"

If any SWIFTS out there are looking for holiday accommodation for next year then we’ve finally installed a detached, single-room cottage with views over fields. @SaveourSwifts @_BTO @Natures_Voice @WildlifeTrusts @BBCSpringwatch @ChrisGPackham @NorfolkBirds @BirdWatchDaily

Four swifts still circling and screaming overhead at dusk! Despite the weather conditions we’ve had of late. There’s obviously still lots of food about… but it’s 20th August !!!@SaveourSwifts
