--Boundary_(ID_7p6wcLZxsw6VDuZsEM6eCQ) Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT JUNE 4, 2009 - Randy Lauff sent the following report of 157 TOTAL CHIMNEY SWIFTS into the old chimney at McGowan Lake (Queen's County) near Kejimkujik Nat. Park: Tonight I'm visiting one of my students at the Mersey-Tobeatic Research Institute just outside Keji. She took me to see the Chimney Swifts at the McGowan Lake Fish Hatchery, Caledonia. We counted 157 swifts, about 75,000 mosquitoes (+/-), 42,450 black flies, and about 788 no-see-ums. Granted, the latter were hard to see in the fading light, so there may have been more ;) . Well, at least the swift numbers are fairly accurate. --------------------------------------- 2009 CHIMNEY SWIFTS SUMMARY May 4/09 -- 0 -- Wolfville, Robie Tufts Nature Centre -- Jim Wolford, Harold Forsyth May 9/09 -- 12 -- Wolfville, Robie Tufts Nature Centre -- Jim Wolford, Carol Carpenter, Sean Timpa, Jean Timpa May 11/09 -- 20 -- Wolfville -- Jim Wolford May 11/09 -- 75 -- New Glasgow -- Ken McKenna May 12/09 -- 81 -- Middleton Regional High School -- Claire Diggins May 13/09 -- 13 -- Wolfville -- Jim Wolford May 14/09 -- 44 -- Wolfville -- Jim Wolford May 14/09 -- 170 -- New Glasgow -- Ken McKenna May 15/09 -- 287 -- New Glasgow -- Ken McKenna May 15/09 -- 40 -- Upper Falmouth (old farmhouse) -- Cheryl Rutledge May 15/09 -- 17 -- Bible Hill, N.S.
