Swift exit

12 Aug 2011 Swift by Dave Harris

Swifts have been pouring out of the country during the last 3 weeks. Consequently they've dropped from appearing on up to 50% of complete lists in June-early July to just 15% of complete lists now. Other species on the move include several warbler species such as Sedge Warbler, and lots of waders. The latter is illustrated by the Whimbrel reporting rate, not to mention the flock of 7 Whimbrel that flew over my head during a birding trip near Thetford this week.
