Species migration 1998-2010
 
House Martin
Small numbers only during Spring migration, when double figure counts can be rare. This is a high-flying species on return migration with a peak reached during September, but fine weather can mean that large numbers are missed through altitude. Migrant numbers have dropped since 2003.
