'Swift' action to provide bird homes for Lewisham swifts thanks to firefighters



Protected birds are getting help from both firefighters and housing groups to give them their own homes on Lewisham houses.

The bird boxes are being placed on houses in Wynell Road in Forest Hill and Dacre Park South in Lee.

London Fire Brigade were needed to install the bird homes right at the top of each house, parking the fire engines right up by the houses to use the ladder to get right up into the top corners.
