Species migration 1998-2010
 
Sand Martin
The first migrants often appear in late March, with March 2000 being exceptional. Most move through during April and continuing into May, although this seems to have lessened in recent years as passage has become more concentrated into April. Return migration begins very early, often in late June, before a second period of migration in September.
