Early Swift departure (1 Viewer)

[WACCOE]

Non for several days but one just now with several Swallows moving through.

I hadn't seen any for several days but yesterday I decided to give my binoculars a clean. I was testing them in the garden afterwards and spotted a lone Swift battling its way through the gale force winds. Perhaps if I had cleaned my binoculars a few days earlier I might have seen some more.

Not very useful or informative when all you reveal of your location is 'UK'?

Saw four over the local park across the road from the house here in Leicester a couple of days ago but suspect these were passage birds as had not seen the local group over the garden for about a week to ten days prior to that
