I would like to thank you all for your contributions made in the last months. Please continue to collect your observations of common swifts with us in this project, now that most of them have returned to their breeding sites in Europe.

https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/picture-my-habitat

Please remember to also report your observations of breeding or feeding common swifts to your local bird protection association or to the contact person at the relevant municipal office. This is the only way to actually protect their nests and offspring!

In order to participate your observation to this project, you still have to be a member. You then click on the picture of the observation that you want to add.

On the right hand, you select "Project", then click on the link with the title of "Picture my habitat". This opens a form which contains several fields. Here you can add more information about your observation.

Please note: You are free to fill out most of the fields. But there are two mandatory fields that must be filled out if you would like to add your observation to this project. These are:

"Habitat: breeding grounds and migration"
"Habitat (southern Africa): non breeding grounds" (if your observation was made during the breeding season, please select: "unknown")

Before you submit the form, remember to confirm your entries by clicking the button to the right of each field.

I am happy to hear about your current observations and thank you for your help!
