Talk on Swifts – FREE

Swifts are extraordinary birds. They are the fastest British birds in level flight, reaching up to 70mph, and they spend most of their lives airborne. They sleep, eat and even mate on the wing, and really only land in order to lay eggs and fledge their young.  Arriving in the UK around mid April, their scythe shaped wings and long, screaming call as they fly in groups above our heads have been a special feature of summer skies for centuries past.
