About an hour before dusk they begin circling and swirling around the chimney as the numbers keep increasing. A few will start making feints at the chimney, then a few will start dropping down into the chimney. These are followed by more and more until the sky is empty about dusk. We will meet at the south end of the Kingsgate P&R by 5:30 p.m. and carpool to Monroe Elementary School in Monroe. Passenger cost/person is $3.00. If you plan to go, email Hugh Jennings at: hughbirder@earthlink.net or call 425-746-6351 so I can contact you in case of a change in plans due to weather.
