Swifts to the Manor Born.

I did this particular sketch whilst being part of the "Swifts in the Community" project. Our team were busy
monitoring the number of Swifts present along with their nest sites in our local village of Burton In Kendal, South Lakes.
In this particular sketch - The top Swift lives in the Manor House (top right building), The middle Swift with the
crown on his head, "says he's special coming from Royal Stock" lives in the old Royal Hotel which is the building
shown on the middle left.  And the third or bottom Swift is telling the other two that he his the Cock in "my" yard,
because he lives in the cottages to the bottom right hand side which the area is called "Cocking Yard".
