Lockdown Red-rumped Swallow!

YorkOC Posted on 26th April 2020 Posted in Sightings

Jono Leadley turned up an exciting find yesterday when he came across a Red-rumped Swallow at  Acaster Malbis during his daily lockdown exercise. A quality bird and only the fourth for the York area, if accepted!

Read his account and see the videos he took on his blog at: http://birdingdad.blogspot.com/2020/04/lockdown-birding-red-rumped-swallow.html
