This video features the Chimney Swift (Chaetura pelagica), a unique and declining bird species at risk. Chimney Swifts are somewhat mysterious since their nests are not typically visible, located inside chimneys or hidden within other human-built structures. The video includes engaging, rare footage showing the species building its nest and rearing young, in addition to providing positive actions we can all take to help the Chimney Swift.
This project was generously supported by the Ontario Trillium Foundation.
