For NSMC  on Sat eve: 

A count of 35 Chimney Swifts  was recorded  entering the Robie Tufts Nature
Centre chimney in Wolfville by Jim Wolford and myself .   The first swift
arrived at 8:10pm and was joined within mins by 2 more but it was almost ½
hr before the rest arrived.  A quick circle or two of this expanded group
and down into the chimney they dropped by 8:40 pm.  It was overcast, with
light sprinkles of rain drops and a temp ~ 10oC.

 

Jean Timpa told me she had seen at least 7 swifts circling  over her house
during the day, possibly some from the previous night’s roost?. 

 

Cheers

Judy Tufts
