Learn about chimney swifts on The Willard Rooftop on Wednesday, September 17. Join us in our Horizon Ballroom at 5:45pm for a program given by John Gerwin, Research Curator of Ornithology at the NC Museum of Natural Sciences and Wake Audubon board member. John will spend about 45 minutes discussing these fascinating birds that breed and roost in chimneys in eastern North America before migrating to a small section of the western Amazon region.After the program, grab an avian-themed drink from The Willard bar, and then join members of Wake Audubon on the rooftop terrace to hopefully witness chimney swifts in action as they begin to swarm and swirl through the sky. (No guarantees that we’ll actually see the birds – nature is fickle – but we saw many swarms from the rooftop in 2023 and 2024.)
This event is free and open to all.
