Difficult to assess as 'hirundines' were coming in from off the Solent and circling high - and probably moving on.

2023Sand Martin, Blashford Lakes - Ibsley Water, not known, 26th November, I was at Blashford Lakes on Sunday afternoon. Although a dismal day, a single Sand Martin was still flying around the Ibsley Water Lake viewed from the Tern Hide brown on top with no white rump so not House Martin. Distance was around 20 metres and I was looking through binoculars. (Simon Dicks)
