Ken,

What an amazing show that must have been!!  I just have to ask though:  how you can count 489 birds in 4 minutes!!??  I guess that you never round off?  I cannot count to 489 in 4 minutes, even without the birds.
Thanks for the report!

  Hi all
  Great swift show at Temperance St. school again tonite (May 26) with 489 counted between 9:11-9:15. Nice clear skies tonight and about 17C. Also increasing were a number of new observers who were quite tickled to view something they never knew happened although it has been going on for years. 
  cheers
  Ken
