Swifts disappearing/reappearing?

Once the swifts return in May, they're usually here for the season and I see/hear them daily. This year there seem to be far fewer than usual and they keep disappearing for 1-3 days before I start seeing them flying around again (I live in a high house up on a hillside and they nest in my roof). Does anyone know why this might be? I love them and get really worried when they seem to vanish!

Agree. Far fewer this year. Sad

Same here - a lot fewer this year, I've only seen 6 and they got here much later. Just as I put up two swift boxes as well.
