SUMMARY:Wotton's Swifts
DESCRIPTION:No other bird spends more of its life in the air. No other flies faster in level flight. No other sleeps on the wing. Join us to discover the extraordinary life of the swift – its closest and surprising relative\, its remarkable top speed\, why it rarely perches\, and where it nests here in town. Migrating\, sleeping\, feeding\, drinking\, and even mating are all carried out on its long\, elegant\, sickle-shaped wings. \nEach year\, these incredible birds travel thousands of miles from Africa\, returning faithfully to Wotton for the summer. Their arrival is one of nature’s most thrilling seasonal spectacles.Local swift champion Mark Pasco invites you to look up and rediscover this iconic yet often overlooked visitor. \n \nEvent Schedule: \n\n7:00pm – Short walk around the Chipping to take in nest sites and (hopefully) enjoy some swift fly-bys\n7:30pm – Illustrated talk\, including fascinating insights\, stunning images\, poetry\, and time for questions\n8:45pm – Approximate finish\n\nCome along to be inspired\, informed\, and amazed—and to help raise awareness of this truly epic bird. \nFree entry and the bar will be open.
