Thought that I would share these with you guys.
Newly born around 3 weeks ago and will be fully fledged within 7 days and will be on there way to South Africe for the winter in August and will return next year in April for it all to happen again.
British swallows spend their winter in South Africa: they travel through western France, across the Pyrenees, down eastern Spain into Morocco, and across the Sahara. Some birds follow the west coast of Africa avoiding the Sahara, and other European swallows travel further east and down the Nile Valley. Swallows put on little weight before migrating.
