Saw the first swallow of summer today perched on a wire in Herefordshire!!

She is just around the corner…….

Queue 'swallow' jokes ……….

"Cue" 🙂

One Swallow does not a Summer make.

But as a Scottish friend of mine says, ' a wee swally o' sump'n good helps keep the cold oot, eh?'

Here is Wisdom.

I saw one on the 2nd of March

In Fuerteventura

I have a nesting pair in my garage. Looking forward to a few months of cars covered in bird sh1t. 😕 At least this years nest is at the side, last year they were right in the centre above a parking space.

African or European?

It'll be fast frozen if it isn't careful.

I had a lovely walk today, down the valley into 3 Cliffs bay. The kids loved it, sun out, but still cold even with 3 layers on. Both daughters complained of frozen hands after a while. On the way home we could see snow up on the mountains.

SNOW! In South Wales! In April!

It feels like summer is a long way off yet.

You sure these swallows havnie just been stuck here since last year, after the bankruptcy of their airline?

I saw swallows yesterday too & got caught in a blizzard

I love Spring 🙂

I have just been out riding past snow drifts still….

Snow isn't that unusual in April

I remember once waking up to a covering of snow in June – at sea level[ish] too

Swallow in German is Schwalbe

What tyres for Spring?
