House martins

130 house martins (plus one swallow) on the wires outside my house (Jumble Hole) this morning, and we don't usually get house martins around here.

High Royd - 18:45 - 19:30 21 Aug.

Very little about on dry beds, but coot was heard from the back of the area, so there must be some water there. + 16 magpies, 30 carrion crows.

And to continue the theme, I had 30+ Sand Martins go straight through Ringstone due South, late in the evening.
