Swifts celebration

The swifts are back! They spend the winter flying (without ever landing!) and go all the way to North Africa and back.

During the summer, they’re back, and it’s our neighbourhood where they choose to bring up a family. These amazing birds can eat 100,000 insects per day (including midgies) and can fly at 69mph!

We’re having a wee party to celebrate their return. See poster for details.

Lots of us have been learning more about the different species we share Granton with, and the things we can do to be good neighbours to them. Come join us!
