Vaux's Swifts
At sunset, Vaux's Swifts return from a day on the wing to roost in Portland, Oregon’s Chapman Elementary School chimney during their fall migration. In early fall, thousands of Vaux’s Swifts gather in the city as they prepare to migrate to Central America and Venezuela. Migrating swifts often use a chimney like this one as a place to sleep.
