Last day of summer?

On what was probably the last day of warm weather (two days ago); I came across a flock of fifty or sixty house martins on the wires above the fields below the Downs.  Meanwhile, from the midst of the field, a skylark sang. Then as I approached the village, a chiffchaff sang its full song.
I may not be seeing or hearing any of these again for some months.
