   They are very cool. But they don’t come close to watching the bats fly out in Austin. We need some bats up here!

   I used to watch the Chimney Swifts back in Fillmore. They lived in the chimney at the High School.

   Yes, the swifts are here, but not for much longer. Best time to see them is about 7:30 or 8 p.m.
