Wonderful kick-off for Swift Watch Wednesday evening, 9/4, at the Clay Place chimney behind the Arts Center in Fir Grove Park. Lots of people - and lots of birds! Thanks to Mark Hamm for doing the count - 2850. I don't believe we've ever had that many this early in the month. So, either the peak is happing a couple of weeks early, or we're going to have a great year! Diana Wales
