March/2008
House Martins are migrating little birds.
In Scotland the Martins are troubled by the warming climate; They make an extra set of chicks too late in the summer without realizing it. When the time comes to make the long flight to winter in Africa, the little Martins are still too small and have no chance of making it. There is just a lonely wait until it's inevitable demise.
