Dear Birders,

Alas, last night there were only 8 swifts entering the chimney so I think
the season is over till next year. Glad to have had all the suggestions
from you. I've been in contact with Alice Nelson in B'more who has been
doing these surveys for many years & she is graciously helping me.
