Hi all,

I had trouble uploading the promised YouTube clip of the Temperance Street =
School Chimney Swifts from May 28 2011, but I was finally successful. To vi=
ew the clip, Google "youtube temperance street swifts" or follow the link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D8DwVh9bp3KA . I stopped in at the school o=
n my way home to Port Bickerton last Friday (June 10 2011) and took a few p=
hotos as well, posted on my Flickr site http://www.flickr.com/photos/ally_k=
z/5832910863/  (or go to Flickr.com and search "Temperance Street"). Ken co=
unted between 550-600 swifts that night, which was a clear, calm but chilly=
 evening at 11 degrees C (he hadn't yet totaled up the numbers when I left =
for home). Another amazing natural spectacle.

They're not the best photos, and I'm sure some of the very talented photogr=
aphers on the listerv could do much better (hint, hint-I am looking for add=
itional Chimney Swift photos).

I couldn't access Ally's youtube of the swifts but there is an interesting =
selection of shots from other places, both in and out of the chimney. Googl=
e youtube chimney swifts.
