House Martins swarming in the combe
Noticed swallow type birds swarming south of the orchard yesterday but wasn't close enough to identify. Late afternoon today So Cruise and I encountered them again east of Maidencombe Cross. White underbellies and fairly short forked tails eliminated both swift and swallow and noted that House Martins have been sighted in fairly large numbers in this vicinity past few days. Allied to the drop in temperature, sure signs that winter is on the way. We wish we could migrate to Africa with them!
