To anyone who wants to view chimney swifts funneling: come to Reisterstown, 
MD. I have seen the swifts twice this week going into a chimney in the rear 
of the Masonic Temple at the intersection of Main Street and Chatsworth 
Avenue, in "downtown" Reisterstown between 7:35 and 7:55 PM. It's great fun 
showing them to grandchildren and other family members. You could do as we've 
done: stop in at the Friendly's next to the Masonic Temple for ice cream, 
leaving in time to see the birds. We discovered them by accident. Ironically, 
in previous years I have gone to Westminster, Baltimore, and, yes, 
Reisterstown, looking for them, with no luck.
 
We had Tennessee Warbler, Blackburnian warbler, Common Yellowthroat, and 
Black-throated Green Warbler in the pecan tree next to our deck on Tuesday 
about 1 PM and lots of chippies.

I also have a Cardinal with a black head.
