SaveOurSuffolkSwifts Suffolk Bird Group House Martin Conservation UK & Ireland Jenny Rawson We do it at home for them every year, they are straight down to get the mud

A Swift Community Set comprising of four Swift nest boxes and a 240V Peak Boxes call system has been installed at Dennington Primary School where their pupils will be able to see the colony develop. Over 25 schools and colleges now have sets here Suffolk Bird Group SuffolkWildlifeTrust

Are #swift callers and nest boxes worth it, damn right they are less than 3 days after installation we had not 1 but 2 swifts trying to enter the new box,

And then there were two!

Have your say on Suffolk's plan to help reverse the decline in nature & support wildlife across the county 📝

A public survey is open to feed into Suffolk’s Local Nature Recovery Strategy

Despite all the recent rainfall Suffolk is drying out very quickly. I asked a quick favour, and this muddy puddle was created near Bury St Edmunds for Swallows and House Martins. They need mud for nests ⁦Suffolk Bird Group⁩ ⁦House Martin Conservation UK & Ireland⁩ ⁦Jenny Rawson⁩ #MUD

More swift boxes up this week, in Ipswich ! 😁

SWIFT KLAXON. They have arrived. They are really high up but I can hear them shouting from the office. Welcome back, guys.

SaveOurSuffolkSwifts 😃 calls are ON!

SaveOurSuffolkSwifts Suffolk Bird Group Wonderful to hear the swifts above Ashmere Grove in Ipswich - they have been regular visitors since we moved in in 1989 (and probably before!)

Swiiiiiiiiifts!

Swift number one back in nestbox tonight, 16 days earlier than last year, 19 days earlier than 2022 & 28 days earlier than 2021 when 1st nested in box. If only we could communicate they'd be some tales to tell, more on the Swifts part than mine

SaveOurSuffolkSwifts Suffolk Bird Group alerted this morning by a swift spotter and now seen them in Woodbridge - a lovely start to the summer #welcomeback

I saw 4 swifts screaming over Aldeburgh rooftops this afternoon! just waiting on our local birds now 🤞, poised to play calls.
