這是另一個十多二十隻小白腰雨燕的家園，這次是在我們長達一年的守護中，終於平安渡過了牠們最艱辛的日子！

感謝燕子組的Pamela一直不辭勞苦的緊密跟進及匯報工作！

在大廈進行翻新工程的這一年，燕子曾經有一段很困難的日子，但總算也捱過了，燕巢幸運地得以保留下來。
在此向各方曾提供協助的人士，特別是該大廈的各居民，業主立案法團的蕭先生，有關維修工程人員及漁護署職員致萬二分衷心的感謝！

Dear Ah Sze,

You will be even happier if you know that 4 new nests for little swifts were built on the other end of the building. (The data for last year was ZERO).

This is the value of doing longitudinal bird survey every year!!!  Thank you for your good work performed.

Excellent - I wish I could find some in my area where there are about 7 active barn swallow nests. Question - There are two swallow nests that have been built upon. The nests now reach the top of the cement above (e.g. no gap) and it is loaded with many feathers. It looks like a side entrance hole. Any idea who this might be? I have not yet caught a glimpse of the bird. There is an aquarium shop below but I don't have enough Chinese to explain properly. It seems they try to tell me that there are birds (there). Thank you for your help.

The two swallow nests were changed to swift nests by House Swift.

Dear Christine! Deeply thanks to you and other volunteers who support the annual swift and swallow nest survey too.
