About 10 or 15 Swifts in today (first ones for the farm were yesterday). Darryl in Gwent also says he had his first arrival today so presumably a wide spread arrival.

About 40+ House Martins, 10 Sand Martin, 5 Swallow, 1 LRP, 2 Sparrowhawk, 1 Peregrine and the other gents had Wheatear.
I missed Little Tern yesterday on the farm in a south east wind. Interestingly coincides with 50+ from Dungeness http://www.dungenessbirdobs.org.uk/lateframe.html
and a smaller passage from Portland
