Vaux Swifts now in Portland Oregon
Sep 2nd, 2008 by Brad
The Vaux Swifts have returned to Portland Oregon! The 2008 seasons is building quickly. There were about 1,000 or so birds at sunset on Labor Day. Click below to see the video I took on September 1, 2008:
Chapman School in Northwest Portland can host up to 35,000! so we are only at the start of 2-3 weeks of fun.
Chapman Elementary School is located at: 1445 NW 26th Ave, Portland, OR. Look in the back of the school. Most people view from the the hill (close to where 27th and pettygrove would meet, if they did).
