Our visit from Dick Newell with the Swift Workshop people from the visitor centre went well - I think they were impressed with our two breeding pairs on view on the monitor in our living room - a bit of a squeeze with 17 people! Or at least one half of our breeding pairs was seen, as the two partners were out on the hunt at the time. An egg was spotted just before the visitors left as one of the birds shifted slightly. We estimate that box 3 have been incubating for just about 19 days today, so we hope to be seeing chicks very soon. Stop Press: we now have two swiftlets in box 3, video below:
