We had about 30 Fairy Martins roosting on the roof of the house yesterday.

At first I thought that we just had a few more Welcome Swallows than usual but, 
when they settled on the roof, I grabbed the binoculars and it became obvious 
that they were Martins.  I counted 28 on the roof and there were a few more 
still in the air.

We have been here for 18 months and I haven’t seen Martins here before.  The 
conditions weren’t out of the ordinary and they didn’t seem to be hawking for 
insects.

Cheers

David
