I'll soon be 61 and Chimney Swifts have been summer residents of our house
since long before my time. They have always been very polite to me.
There used to be 4 chimneys on our house. Two were built from the ground up
and had open hearth fire places, the other two went from the attic up and were
connected to stoves in the rooms below by metal stove pipes. Now the one
remaining chimney serves as a vent for a warm morning gas heater, used only
during power outages. There isn't much use for chimneys nowadays. I wonder what
will become of Chimney Swifts when people quit building chimneys.
