This happened this morning in Kent! "Unbelievable! I've just seen two swifts copulating in the sky above work in Kent! They've been about for the last week, I think they’re nesting on an adjoining property, I can't be sure! Calls playing and boxes provided here, nonetheless!"

Now I have my first nesting swifts on my own home, I'm reflecting on all the work we've done for this species in this part of East Sussex in England. We won't relent. Our work goes on. Hastings & Rother Swift Conservation Group East Sussex 19/05/2024 (Photo - Robert Booth)

Whoever wins OUR vote should only be our voice by showing nature leadership - for all our sakes. Easiest step: mandate swift bricks - simple, urgently essential, nesting habitat for swifts&our most accessible touch point to nature- urban birds. WE have the power. #GeneralElection

Have you noticed fewer swifts this year too? With their numbers in free fall, help us stop this downward trajectory, before we lose swifts from Sheffield skies forever

Our cherished Swifts are fast declining. Catch the reasons why on #Springwatch as BBC Springwatch talk to us about the problems facing these fascinating birds. But there's hope. Watch how Leeds are helping to Save the Swifts: bit.ly/4byTGYP
