Thanks, Claire!  Also on May 12 I did the Wolfville vigil, and only  
13 swifts entered the RTNC chimney from 8:48 to 8:58 p.m. (Sunset at  
about 8:33 p.m.).  I watched from 8:20 to 9:05 p.m., and it was so  
quiet at the liquor store Tues. eve. that I actually HEARD THE SWIFTS  
three times, which was quite a treat for me.

Cheers from Jim in Wolfville
