Where are our House Martins?

Hazy sunshine and thin high cloud, 15°, light NNE.

A male Peregrine Falcon out at the Little Lollingdon area and a Lesser Whitethroat and Yellow Wagtail around the hill.

Where are our House Martins? Saw a couple in early May around Church road area but not since! And have not seen any around the village!

  1. We've had House Martins nesting on our estate for years previously. This year a few turned up a week or two ago but there doesnt seem to be any activity at present. May be it is too dry for them to build nests?
