I thought I would share this email from Bryant Park List Serve, that even non-birders are enjoying the Chimney Swifts:
Neighbors, It appears that the flock of Chimney Swifts has returned to the Belle Sherman school chimney. They put on quite a show...I'd recommend it! If you're interested, they begin gathering about 8:20 (at least that's been their pattern over the past few days). After 15-20 minutes of flying in big circles over the school and surrounding area the flock (50-60?) then streams into the chimney for the night. It's quite fascinating. I'm not a "birder", so if anyone has more information to share, please do!
