Swifts

I was on east marsh by the back river on Monday 4th. Some unknown and unseen insect must have been rising over the river as lots (felt like hundreds) of swifts had come down from the reservoirs and were in a frenzy of feeding. Up, down and across the river at head height was a display of aerial acrobatics of breathtaking intensity. Awesome! Dermot

 

Added some video – not  very representative: Swifts wmv
