The only time swifts aren’t flying is when they are in the nest, as chicks, or brooding and looking after chicks. And when swift chicks leave the nest for the first time, they may fly straight to Africa. They won’t stop flying again until they are nesting.

LEARNING THE CRAFT OF NATURE AND WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY
This is my diary of the wildlife where I live in Oxfordshire, and sometimes the places I visit. I am a 14 year old young naturalist with a passion for British wildlife, especially Badgers and Hares. I have been blogging since May 2013 and you can read my old blog posts at www.appletonwildlifediary.blogspot.co.uk
I run a hedgehog hospital in York rescuing sick and injured wild hedgehogs. I make handmade silver jewellery inspired by nature and wildlife to raise funds for the hospital.
