WORT 89.9FM Madison · Chimney Swifts Need Your Help

No, Chimney Swifts is not the brand name for a speedy soot removal service company.  They are a species of migratory birds that breed up here in Wisconsin, and winter down in South America. They’re on the move right now, and the DNR and swift enthusiasts are looking for help to get an accurate count of these speedy, aerobatic birds.   Nancy J. Nabak is the Chair of the Wisconsin Chimney Swift Working Group, and is also the Communication and Development Coordinator for the Woodland Dunes Nature Center.
