    Alover D13 as well. Hundreds of gulls wheeling around above the house feeding on them.

    I thought (mistakenly) that this only happens for one day?

    I've just had a big hatch under my deck. I was hosing it down, so maybe the water set them off. Garden is full of swifts, willow warblers and swallows snapping them up. Even the house sparrows are having a go. The swifts are so close I can hear their beaks snapping shut on the ants.

    No flying ants at all here in my nature reserve in Kildare. They must prefer urban areas due to all the concrete.
