TONIGHT! 7pm Mahtomedi HS. Will be postponed if it is storming. Guess who's ready for release? Five of our Chimney Swifts have been in outdoor caging for a few weeks and are ready to join a migrating flock. We'd love to have you join us as we release these birds into the large flock at Mahtomedi High School tomorrow night. They have approximately 4,000 birds roosting in their smokestack right now. Swifts claim independent territory during breeding season but form massive flocks during migration

Our Conservation & Research team is excited to share that we have detected chimney swifts inside our artificial chimney at the Zoo again this spring! Chimney swifts are currently listed as a Threatened species in Canada, in large part due to habitat loss.

These hungry ones are baby chimney swifts. An endangered species in Nova Scotia, chimney swifts nest in caves, tree cavities and man made structures (especially chimneys). Their nests are loosely wove twigs that are held together and adhered to a vertical wall inside chimneys or other structures using the parents’ glue like saliva. #hopeforwildlife #wildliferescue #wildliferehab #HFW #chimneyswifts | Hope For Wildlife

You can’t miss the sounds of chimney swifts! 📢 These young birds need extra care - feedings every hour and a half to be exact. We are thankful to have a staff member dedicated to taking care of these delicate birds. Have you ever seen a chimney swift’s nest? Chimney swift parents build a half-cup of loosely woven twigs, cemented together and to the wall of a chimney (or any other vertical structure) with their glue-like saliva! They are pretty swift and savvy builders. 🧱 | Conservancy of South

Calling all Swifties! 🗣️ Chimney Swifts are back in town, and you could catch their spectacular show at a chimney near you! ✨ The small, fast-flying birds are known for the tornado-like dance they perform in the sky. Brenna Marsicek is the director of outreach with the Southern Wisconsin Bird Alliance (@swibirds). She says that at dusk, the birds will dive headfirst into a chimney to roost — sometimes by the thousands. 🐦🪶 Lake Effect’s Xcaret Nuñez spoke with Marsicek for this month’s Chirp C

Chimney swifts! These aerial insectivores are a unique species of bird. Incapable of perching, these birds must cling to the sides of surfaces vertically. These small black birds are most active at night and are often mistaken for bats! Chimney swifts usually build their roosts in human structures, hence their name. As a migratory species, we recommend sealing off any openings in the winter, after the chimney swifts have flown to South America. Sealing off any openings in the summer can lead to

Chimney swifts are found across the eastern half of the U.S., including Florida. This small bird can be identified by its dark stubby body, blunt tail, and curving wings. A nimble flyer, chimney swifts maneuver overhead feeding on insects that are captured during flight. When landing, they are unable to perch and instead use their long claws to cling to vertical walls inside chimneys, hollow trees, or caves. The chimney swift uses glue-like saliva to cement its nest to the chimney wall or rock f

Swifts in the chimney: What to know about this threatened bird species - The Weather Network

theweathernetwork.com

We had fun visiting with all of you last night. We especially enjoyed answering questions from the younger crowd members. Our two favorites are: Do the swifts have to worry when Santa comes down the chimney? (answer: no, because they migrate and aren't in the chimney in the winter) and How do they build the nests so they cling to the chimney? (answer: with mud, sticks and spit - which promptly received a "Gross!" response). Here's a video of one flying from its travel box (note that you can see
