Springwatch

We met our friends Liz and Genny at Baddesley Clinton, a National Trust moated manor house in Warwickshire, today.  

We managed to stay mainly in the shade, eating lunch in an old barn by the courtyard.  In the corner there is this nest with three young ones.  The adults kept flying in and out with titbits for them. I think it is a family of swallows, but am open to correction.  One of the adults is in the extras, though you can't see the tail, it is forked.
