Zeus went out this morning at 5.50am in heavy rain but managed to get back in hours later soaked through....
Its not been the best start to June for our Swifts, many have been off there eggs for hours with some due to hatch in the next coming days. But swifts are able to leave there eggs for a few hours at a time and the embryo will continue to grow once the egg is warmed up again as long as its not for days in a row....
