All our swallows went over a week ago - weeks earlier than last year.  Do they know something we don't ....?

Ours went on the 15th which is bang on the usual.


I saw an amazing aerial battle a couple of days before they went, swallow v sparrow hawk.  It went on for several minutes, a real WW2 dogfight.  In the end the sparrow hawk caught the swallow.
