We had a couple of fantastic #swift walks in Angus this week. In #Arbroath we had a screaming party of 19 - far bigger than expected - and found 2 new nest sites. What a night! They are all now on the #Swiftmapper. Floss was good at listening out for screaming parties πŸ˜€

The Common red soldier beetle is a great garden friend as it eats aphids as well as pollen and nectar. This amorous couple were on a Hogweed flower. Did you know Common hogweed is edible and can be lightly steamed and eaten like asparagus? Yum yum.

It's the final count down. They hatched on June 6th, 38 days ago. In 7 days, they'll be gone Compare that nest period to a robin #apusapus #commonswift #actionforswifts #swiftconservation #saveourswifts

Our resident female osprey NC0 & her new beau the 'Dark Intruder' are still active on the reserve; preening, eating, nestorating and defending the territory, including from some unringed intruders & 'Blue 247', a three year old born near Tain and sighted in 2021 in Sengal.

Fab evening leading a joint RSPB Scotland & Falkirk Council Swift walk in Airth with Falkirk Ranger Lesley Sweeney. Thankfully the rain stayed off (great rainbows!🌦️🌈) We had loads of Swifts feeding overhead, and a couple of scream parties added to #SwiftMapper too.
