Very grateful that Stephen Moss has written about swifts and mentioned me and our nationwide campaign to save them ⬇️

Tell me Rishi Sunak that this isn’t true, that you’re are capable of doing the right, sensible, reasonable thing when the alternative is just wrong and stupid.
1 year ago TODAY my swift brick petition closed with 110k signatures leading to a proposal supported by experts.
WHY no action?

Our PM doesn't want to save our icons of summer from extinction.
BIG thanks to Bev Turner 🌸 and Andrew Pierce for giving swifts airtime today on GB News 🤩WE need to ensure our elected govt mandate swift bricks - without them there’s NO nesting habitat for swifts in the UK&there never will be. Write to your MP. Now.
Hannah Bourne-Taylor #FirstBirdOfMyDay something yellow x 5 in the coppiced woodland near my house. Pretty certain they weren’t goldfinches. Unfortunately I startled them before getting to ‘Merlin’. My second birds were sparrows 😊
Hannah Bourne-Taylor #FirstBirdOfMyDay was our male Blackbird hopping slowly across the lawn. He kept stopping, with his head on one side, as if listening for something
First bird of my day: a line of ducklings, golden in the sunlight, following mother mallard down stream. Bliss. #FirstBirdOfMyDay #WhatsYours

A joy to have Hannah Bourne-Taylor on Britain's Newsroom this morning telling us all about the remarkable #Swift birds which arrive back in the UK TODAY after their phenomenal migration!
We need to give these special birds plenty of homes.
