Chimney Swift

Chaetura pelagica

Habitat:

someone's chimney

Notes:

This guy fell down a chimney and was delivered to the rehabber pictured here. Chimney Swifts are more happy on a vertical surface with legs built for clinging to the sides of caves and stiff tail feathers to help with balance and stability. Spotted with Noah Buddy, kfryn218, who btw is awesome, you should go check out her spottings :) http://www.projectnoah.org/users/kfryn21...
