The swifts are back! For the last few days, I have kept looking up into the sky and listening out for that familiar, eardrum-piercing tzee-tzee-tzee, but nothing. Then this afternoon, to my great joy, I saw the first three or four. Sibillant swifts, scissoring the sky with their swoops and darts, zizzing like aerial crickets. They are the true first sign of summer.
