Gene, we were there yesterday evening, and there were a couple hundred swifts. We got there at 6:30 pm, saw hardly any until around 7:30, when they started aggregating overhead (a few singles, surprisingly, did drop into the chimney), and the great majority went into the chimney in a flurry of bodies and wings around 7:45. I suppose it might be slightly earlier each day.
