About 1020 swifts flew into the chimney at Oakton
elementary school (route 123) at dusk this
evening.  First bird entered at 7:38. Last bird
entered at 7:55.  Quite an amazing sight as they
swirled around chippering noisily. Most poured
into the chimney tonight between 7:45 and 7:50.

All the best
Fred
