The latest video, on the Monroe swifts. Up to 12,000 Vauk's Swifts roost in an old chimney at an elementary school in Monroe, Washington during their fall migration. 15 minutes of tape, 3 hours of edit.

Hi Doug, I wish I had known you were there, I would have introduced myself, I really enjoy your blog. I live in Monroe was there shooting for the Monroe Monitor, and Ilene Hamblton, a good friend, was the main organizer. Thanks to your video I really do belive the Swifts reverse direction just before they enter the chimney! Thanks, Jim.

Sorry I missed you too. I got there a bit late, so I didn't circulate like I wanted to. It seems the swifts sorta stop and float down butt first.
