Hi Bob

A good collection of House Martin nests up Grange and some that look like new sites 

And a good number of them look to be still active 

 

Cheers Craggy

Hi Craggs, not too sure where you mean by Grange. I'm aware of long standing colonies at Grange Rd/Grange St/Grange Terr. area of Rawtenstall. Is this the area?

Regarding young in the nest - in a few cases pairs are still feeding young into September, so well worth monitoring any colonies into the autumn.

Bob.

Yep that's the area all so Grange Cresant and Grange Avenue which I think is a new site

 

 

Cheers Craggy
