First birds entered 8:52 and last 9:20. Most of the birds entered 9:01-9:02. It was clear, calm and 24C. Tonight July 22, the weather took a noticeable turn for the worse as I was heading to view the swifts. Wind came up and the sky quickly blackend and the temp. dropped to 20C. As I arrived at 8:39, there was a nice group above the chimney and a number were already going in. I noted 23 going in at the time, but I think I missed a lot. It was another 5 minutes before the bulk went in for the evening, but there were trickling numbers till I left at 9. My count was 164, but I would not consider this an official count as I think I missed quite a number. Will try for a better count tomorrow night if I get a chance. cheers ken --Boundary_(ID_4VOzsaz0GEp5X4Dx2AAI1w) Content-type: text/html; CHARSET=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META name=GENERATOR content="MSHTML 8.00.6001.19088"> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Ken McKenna<BR>Box 218 Stellarton NS<BR>B0K 1S0<BR>902 752-7644<BR></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hi all</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>On July 19, I counted 200 Chimney Swifts going in the Temperance St, schol chimney.
