**CHIMNEY SWIFT - 3rd earliest record for Baltimore. The early Chimney
Swift records for Baltimore are Mar. 30, 1895 by Percy Blogg, 1 at
Hart-Miller Island on Apr 1, 2013 by Kevin Graff & Bob Ringler, 2 at
Cylburn on Apr. 2, 1960 by Hank Kaestner, and 1 at SWAP on Apr. 3,
2012 by Leslie Starr. That's an amazing record to stand for 118 years.
Of the 15 March records for the state 8 are from Anne Arundel County.
There are one February and two March records from DC.
