This is an announcement to any MOS members who planned to attend the
Baltimore swift count this coming Sunday.  For reasons that are unclear
to us, the swifts are not roosting in the Mill Center/Bookbindery
chimneys during fall migration as they have been doing for at least the
last five years.  Last weekend, we discovered that more than 2,000
swifts were using the Conservatory (greenhouse) in Druid Hill Park to
roost, so we are changing our Sunday night watch to the Conservatory
instead.  

Please join us, as the display is quite fantastic.  
We will be there starting at 6:45pm.
