Manningtree Swifts Project

Spring’s on its way and the swifts will be coming! Each year our own Manningtree Swifts fly here non-stop from Africa and often find that their traditional nesting sites under roof tiles and in nooks and crannies up high have gone.

Swifts need you

WE can help! Now would be a really good time to put up nest boxes for them. They like to nest in groups, so why not think about putting up a few? And the great news is that swifts are really clean and don’t leave any mess!

Get in touch for information about suitable locations and advice. We can offer help in putting them in place if needed. Please email manningtreeswifts [at] hotmail.com or call 07580 860423 for more information.
