Portland, Oregon These are called chimney swifts. Swifts love to roost in chimneys, which is widely known. Bird rehabbers even have chimneys built just for the swifts to sleep in. People claiming to these are bats is wild 🤦🏼‍♂️ just go to the persons page who actually lives in Portland Oregon near these birds... this happens every year... https://www.instagram.com/devon.fredericksen I love birds! 🐦 | Sean Gillum

You can’t miss the sounds of chimney swifts! 📢 These young birds need extra care - feedings every hour and a half to be exact. We are thankful to have a staff member dedicated to taking care of these delicate birds. Have you ever seen a chimney swift’s nest? Chimney swift parents build a half-cup of loosely woven twigs, cemented together and to the wall of a chimney (or any other vertical structure) with their glue-like saliva! They are pretty swift and savvy builders. 🧱 | Conservancy of South

Before chimneys existed, Chimney Swifts relied on old hollow trees for nesting and roosting. They can’t perch, they can only cling to a rough vertical surface. As developers cleared old growth forests, Chimney Swifts began using human-built structures. But building styles have changed, making traditional brick chimneys rarer. Pesticides have reduced the populations of swifts’ insect prey. People can help swifts by leaving brick or stone chimneys open from April to October and avoiding pesticides

Chimney swifts! These aerial insectivores are a unique species of bird. Incapable of perching, these birds must cling to the sides of surfaces vertically. These small black birds are most active at night and are often mistaken for bats! Chimney swifts usually build their roosts in human structures, hence their name. As a migratory species, we recommend sealing off any openings in the winter, after the chimney swifts have flown to South America. Sealing off any openings in the summer can lead to

🔊 Hear that chattering sound? That’s the call of chimney swifts! 🐦✨ We took 5 in today. These amazing birds migrate here each year to nest inside chimneys. While the noise might catch you off guard, don’t worry—they’re only around for a short time, usually just 4–6 weeks after their chicks hatch. Chimney swifts are incredibly valuable to the ecosystem—they eat hundreds to thousands of insects a day, helping naturally control pests like mosquitoes. And here’s a fun fact: they have tiny needle-l
