Don't know if one has ever been recorded in Euxton before. Another guy saw and recorded it too - same place - so now I'm sure it was my first hobby sighting. Yeah!

Hobby
a slow glance
for swooping swallows
- is suddenly filled
with a magnificent swift:
sleek streak
transforming
tail head talon
- a bird of prey
a hobby
surely a hobby?
just sped from sight.

I like your swift simile! Glad you had such successful hobby spotting. I saw my first red kite over my house a couple of days ago! (Have seen quite a number in Wales, but never one SO close to home).
Thanks coastcard. It really did look like a big swift.
A red kite over your house? You know how to be me jealous!
Happy spotting
