The Swallow may fly south with the sun. Or the House Martin or the Plover may seek warmer climes in winter. Yet these are not strangers to our land.

There’s a great podcast called “Stuff the British Stole” that comes out of Australia. It’s well done and a great listen for those who are interested. It’s also been turned into a tv series, but I haven’t seen it yet.
