--Boundary_(ID_N38raeuY6ci6aIqYHXJwGA) Content-type: text/plain; CHARSET=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT JUNE 17, 2011 - In Wolfville in the afternoon I had a chance to again watch for chimney swifts at the southwest chimney of University Hall. I sat on the steps of the Business building, Rhodes Hall, for 20 minutes from 3:40 to 4:00 p.m. At 3:40 one swift flew over and past the chimney, at fairly low altitude. At 3:47 one swift CAME OUT of the chimney and flew away. At 3:50 I heard and then saw two swifts flying together past the chimney top and then back past it. At 3:55 one swift flew past the chimney top closely. At 3:58 two swifts were together flying up high near the chimney. I departed at 4 p.m. -------------------- Evening: Lauren Park et al. counted 60+ chimney swifts as they dropped into the chimney of the Robie Tufts Nature Centre at Wolfville at dusk. Sky partly clear/cloudy, 17 C. temp. Observations from 8:49 to 9:27 p.m. (Sunset 9:03). Swifts' entries into chimney were scattered, most went in at 9:21 p.m. Observers Lauren Park, Carmen Braden, Anthony Sairdge??, et al. -------------------- Cheers from Jim in Wolfville --Boundary_(ID_N38raeuY6ci6aIqYHXJwGA) Content-type: text/html; CHARSET=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: quoted-printable <html><body style=3D"word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; = -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div style=3D"margin-top: 0px; = margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><font = face=3D"Helvetica" size=3D"5" style=3D"font: 20.0px Helvetica"><b>JUNE = 17, 2011</b> - I</font><span class=3D"Apple-style-span" = style=3D"font-size: 20px; ">n Wolfville in the afternoon I had a chance = to again watch for <b>chimney swifts</b> at the southwest chimney of = <b>University Hall</b>.
