One of my faves . Just laid on my bed listening to them since dawn soaring and singing their heads off . I’m dead lucky as there’s a farm near me where they nest in the barn eaves . Mind they hardly ever nest at all as they spend nearly their entire life on the wing ( even sleeping and mating ) . Honest !
Sadly in decline in the UK and will be heading home back to Africa soon .
