I am relaying this message for Bruce Di Labio. There are currently (12:45 p.m.) three Cave Swallows at Johnstown, just east of Prescott. The birds are feeding around the large concrete grain storage facility along the river, immediately west of the international bridge along Hwy #2. The swallows can be seen clearly enough to observe their pale throats. Watch for pigeons regularly taking flight and the swallows may be more visible.
Directions: From Hwy 401 take the exit that would bring you to the international bridge and turn off onto Hwy 2. Head west (right) a short distance until you see the massive concrete storage facility on the river side. The facility is gated but you can stop at a turnoff in front. The spot is directly opposite an auto propane dealer.
