Hi Neil,
Thank-you for the report! I'm wondering if you think these are the same sw=
ifts that James reported. I quickly looked on Google Maps and they don't s=
eem too far apart, although the possibility of having 8 Chimney Swifts in K=
entville would not be far fetched.
And just as a reminder for everyone, Maritimes SwiftWatch will take any and=
all reports of Chimney Swifts in the Maritimes! Ideally we are looking fo=
r location information (street address or lat/long), date and time, and num=
ber of CHSW observed. Fee free to email me directly (hlightfoot@birdscanad=
a.org)!
Thank-you!

ey were remaining close to the chimney at 32 Leverett near dusk but I have =
yet to witness them descend.
Regards,

hi folks,
There have been Chimney Swifts flying over Kentville for a number of days, =
so tonight I watched two chimneys in downtown Kentville, that seemed like g=
ood candidates. They both are old and extend high above the rooflines - one=
at United Church and one on back of Allied Insurance building beside TAN. =
Both can be watched from the frint United church parking lot. (a third good=
chimney is on the back of Save Easy (though hard to tell whether it's capp=
ed or not)
A maximum of 4 Chimney Swifts were flying over the town during the time I w=
atched, from 8:40 to 9:20. The last observation was at 9:11 and they were f=
lying west at the time. Some made some low swoops towards the Insurance bui=
lding chimney during the night, but I did not observe any roosting in eithe=
r chimney.
keep your eyes peeled, locals.
cheers,
James.
