     Speaking of 'on a roll' -- the Chimney Swift numbers are increasing 
     and they are using the chimney across from my house (825 Fourth 
     Street, Laurel, MD) again. Last night there were about 100 although I 
     was a little distracted by moving things from car to house so didn't 
     get a very accurate count. It was just about 8 pm and was getting dark 
     so I would suggest getting there around 7:45 pm at this time of year.
     
     Cheers,
