Schottland hat den Einbau von Nestziegel für Mauersegler in Neubauten gesetzlich vorgeschrieben. Das sind hervorragende Neuigkeiten für die stark rückgängige Population.

Save our swifts: include swift bricks in every new house

I just signed the campaign calling to save our swifts, by calling for the UK Government to follow Scotland's lead and make it the law for all new houses to be built with "swift bricks" - safe places for these birds to nest. Will you join me?

Eine Klinik für Mauersegler

In der Frankfurter Mauerseglerklinik dreht sich alles um die gefiederten Patienten. Die faszinierenden Flugkünstler sollen wieder fit gemacht werden für die Freiheit. Aber die Klinik steckt in Nöten.

Chimney swifts have been gone or at least silent in Nazareth for a month, but today I went down to Bethlehem, 10 miles away, and they were up above chattering all over town as if it were the middle of summer. Why the difference I wonder?

Because of Nazareth's track record on nature I have to wonder if they capped the big communal chimney that swifts were using before and after they separate to nest. If that's it, next summer will be missing part of its sound track. 😢 #birds #swifts
