....you find somebody who doesn't know the law or doesn't care. ( They will usually have shifty eyes, want to be paid in cash, and their license plate will either be missing or covered up )

But swifts are so pretty! Been dealing with them in my own chimney for 20 years!

I usually end up with two or three flying around inside the house every year. They can't seem to find the way home! LOL

A unique bird that spooks alot of folks every year that just cant seem to cope with a little chirping, wing fluttering and an occasional one in the fireplace every year.

Just left a job with them. The owners were actually relieved they were not bats.....neat looking nests they have.


Never argue with a fool - they will drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Not that I know of; I tell customers that chimneys are one-way down for everything except coons and swifts.

MChewk, never thought of those guys. You could be right. Now when I meet someone at a seminar that has an avian PHD, I will be ready to drive them nuts.

Had a swift call today. The lady didn't believe me so I took her outside and showed her the little birds hovering over her chimney. Then we watched one zip right in. She actually thought I was making it up.

Yea, that's right - hummingbirds! I only see 'em every day at the feeder! Amazing little critters...Swifts are so, so common, but people don't know that they're living three feet from them until they hear the racket.

Kestrels can hover and fly straight up also.

Kestrels can? Didn't know that. Guess I'll never have to take a kestrel out of a chimney. American Kestrels are common around here.
