Have Chimney Swifts in Your Chimney? If you have Chimney Swifts nesting in your chimney in Houston, Texas, don’t worry! These amazing birds are only temporary guests. Chimney Swifts typically stay in their nesting sites until late summer to early fall, after which they will migrate to South America. These birds play a crucial role in controlling insect populations and are a protected species. If you find Chimney Swifts in your chimney, it's best to let them be. They'll be gone before you know it

The Chimney Swifts and the swift watchers turned out in big numbers at The Accordion Club in Durham this week! Thanks to New Hope Audubon Society and Feminist Birding Crew Durham for hosting. (You can't see the swifts in this video, but you can hear them). This urban wildlife spectacle happens every evening over North Carolina's towns during fall migration.
