Swift talk by Sarah Gibson at Y Dolydd/Llanfyllin Workhouse on Friday 1st July 7:30pm

Join MWT for a launch into Swift Awareness Week for an evening celebrating swifts. Sarah will give a talk about these birds and her book*, then we will walk around the grounds of the Workhouse to experience the swifts first hand. The swifts return to this site each year to nest, and it is a wildlife spectacular not to be missed!

Swifts in Montgomeryshire

I've been doing several swift talks/walks around Montgomeryshire as part of my role with MWT. We've had good numbers of the public attending. We have a swift group set up in Llanidloes (join Llanidloes Swifts on Facebook if you are on there). We had a great evening in Montgomery yesterday, with nearly 30 people attending, hopefully we will set up a group there soon too. 

Keep an eye out on our website event page for future swift walks and events, I'll be doing some more soon! 

Also, please record any nesting swifts, as well as screaming parties. Please record this on the LERC Wales app, send the info the BIS, or email me (lottie@montwt.co.uk).

If you're interested in finding out more about the swift work we are doing, feel free to give me an email!
