Dozens of swallows are flying overhead. Then they're perching on the phone
wires and the ridge of the largest greenhouse. It's both a beautiful and a
sad sight! We rarely get many here at all, so this is unusual for us.
Today is cloudy and humid, so the flies and other insects must be flying
quite low, judging by the height the swallows are feeding at.


6.9mm of rain here in the last 24 hours which is more than for some while,
actually all summer.
