Fraid not Jacksparrow, I reported my first one over 3 weeks ago. In fact I believe it was April 10th. Am seeing lots more lately.

Three Swallows this morning, maybe that is them back. They are about two weeks late this year. Probably the lousy weather put them off.

I got very excited today as I thought my Swifts had returned but it was a false alarm as the Swifts I did see were clearly en route elsewhere as they were all gone by 4 pm.

As stated, Swallows were two weeks late this year. Saw first Swifts today - bang on time.

My Swifts are definitely back today. That's two days earlier than last year.
