The swallow nests are failing because the parents keep disappearing. Once one of the adults goes the other deserts the nest and the young fail. However there are 2 nests with very noisy chicks in and very devoted parents, so fingers crossed.

Hope the twites are not endangered because the cats killed quite a few before we put the bells on them and have even got a couple since. They do seem a bit easy to carch.

The buzzards were soaring this morning and make a strange sound, any ideas why? They seemed to be searching for food. The swallows get very agitated when they are around.
