These Swallows not only arrived recently, but I heard a (unknown) number of chicks scream "ME, ME" and "ME, ME!" upon the arrival of the parent to their nest nearby. around the corner from us.
Tese Swallows fly over and through (sometimes very low, later in summer, our garden to the fields behind our garden and at the school next to us.
The Starling too, have been very much evident lately. And although they converge in the Hawthorn behind us, they hardly enter the garden to feed. Are they perhaps 'afraid' of competition with the Rooks, Jackdaws and Hooded Crows, and prefer a more quieter garden with birds of their own size? It is the only reason I can come up with.
Starling, Stumus vulgaris
