Well we all know the saying “One Swallow doesn’t make a Summer…..”<\/strong>\u00a0 Today for our exercise we walked around the lake in Frampton and my target was to see my first Swallow of the 2020. Lovely walk and I saw a Blackcap, Chiffchaff, Great Spotted Woodpecker some good water birds but still no Swallow. I went up to Splatt Bridge and Bingo there was a Swallow and also a Willow Warbler. So I was very happy but irony of ironies as I walked back into our house two Swallows flew over the house!<\/p>\n
