I wasn't counting but my estimate for the hour would be about 100 swifts, 40 house martins and 20 swallows. No sandmartins..

Steady passage of swifts, swallows and house martins over Cleethorpes saltmarsh between 5.30pm and 6.30pm. Then it abruptly stopped.

Also, there was a common sandpiper at the water’s edge in the boating lake. First I have seen at this location.
