Has anyone been watching the Whiteside chimney for swifts? I'm supposed to do the official count on Saturday but haven't had time to scout.

Hi,

I counted swifts going into the chimney at Wiegand Hall last Saturday evening and there were about 850.  There's another count this Saturday night and reports from other nights are welcome too.

We were not able to watch long, but it appeared some might be going in and out.
