Been getting loads of visitors recently, nuthatches, red crossbills, Siskins, woodpeckers, evening grosbeaks, Cassius, house and Ruby finches, swallows, no sign of hummingbirds yet

Where are all the swallows, swifts and martins?
They normally turn up no later than 8th May in my neck of the woods (yerkershire) but as yet not seen any.
I understand that the jetstream is still south of Britain which accounts for the appalling weather. I think these birds follow the northern movement of the jetstream, moving with the warmer air.
Anyone seen these annual visitors yet?
