Hi folks,

At least a week later than usual.

A rotten photo but it is 10/10ths and raining on and off and they were HIGH. But at least you can (just) see what they are.

Always look forward to seeing these return, and very satisfying it is too to watch them feasting on the st marks flies which have recently started to hatch out on warm days..I think I swallowed my 6th individual last weekend (unintentionally!)

Hi Bill They are not here yet, so lucky you, we have got the rain though its never stopped this weekend.

All the Best Peter
 
Hi Bill.
They must have come in north to south this year, we've had them for a couple of weeks. Summer can start now you've got them. LOL!!

All the best.

Hi Bill,

I've not seen any doing flyovers here yet. They can't be far away though. I've seen them in other places. You do very well capturing these birds in flight. By the time I've cranked up my scope and focused they could be back in Africa!
 
Hi Bill and All They are back here arrived within the last hour, flying high over the house, not often one gets to anounce red hot news. Very pleased to see them, its made my day.
