Subject: [NatureNS] Chimney Swift and late nesting barn swallows


Hi all:

David Vanrijn of Lunenburg observed a chimney swift going in and out of a c=
himney on Pelham Street in Lunenburg a few days ago.  David thinks that it =
is house #54.  I will check this out tomorrow morning.  Can someone pass th=
is along to Ally as I don't seem to have her email address.  Anyhow, with t=
he bird entering repeatedly in the morning, I suspect that this is a sign o=
f a late nesting and that the birds are feeding young ones.  Judith Orr has=
 an active barn swallow nest with adults feeding young ones as of August 24=
.  She lives in Union Square.

Dorothy Poole and I visited Cherry Hill Beach today.  Four young piping plo=
vers were still on the outer part where the last nest was.  Signage is stil=
l present there for the piping plover chicks.  We also observed two other y=
oung piping plovers which were part way out along the beach.
