interesting; after such a steady show here (range 233 to 430/night) for the
past two weeks, including last nite's 360+/-, tonite 12 (twelve) swifts
found their way into the chimney here. all were in by 1948, about 13 mins
earlier than usual.

maybe the 'next wave' checked the weather and decided to spend the night in
Blue Heaven...surely can't fault 'em for that.
