Just how much of an extremist do you have to be to start slagging off people who volunteer to save people at risk of drowning? You can proudly donate to the RNLI here: rnli.org/support-us/give-mon…

Did You Know? Grounded swifts with wings outstretched are usually not sick, but they frequently cannot take off from flat surfaces due to their long wings and tiny legs. Gently pick it up and place it on your hand, allowing it to feel the air, and it will often launch itself. If it still cannot fly after being helped, it may be sick and need a wildlife rehabilitator.

Se você vir andorinhas deitadas no chão com as asas abertas, não tenha medo, ajude-as! Elas não estão doentes... as andorinhas não conseguem levantar voo de superfícies planas. Você tem que pegá-las e deixá-las subir um pouco da altura das suas mãos... elas voarão imediatamente... sozinhas

I seem to have upset the @Nigel_Farage fan club - so let me be clear. This man sows hate, lies and division. He is a grifter and a conman. He does not represent the vast majority of Britons. RT if you agree P.s. multiculturalism is great.

It is against the law to disturb or destroy the nests of wild birds while it's in use or being built in the UK.  This is enshrined in the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. The law aims to protect wild birds during their breeding season.
