Coloring guide for Chimney Swift scene
Describes coloring a chimney interior with dark browns and blacks, gray mortar, a dark bird with gray throat, black eye and beak, and nearly white RES. Through a brick opening the sky appears light blue, distant hills blue gray, a green tree, yellow house with gray roof and red chimney, swifts flying above. Brick base edges use brick red.
Chimney Swifts Aerial Natives of the Night Sky
Chimney swifts rest on walls rather than perching, hanging by long claws as they brace against bricks with tail quills. They soar in swift, endless circles and feed on flying insects, often sharing skies with purple martins and other swallows.
Birds Adapt Habits to Chimney Roosts in Seasonal Shifts
The article describes swifts changing nesting in chimneys and hollow trees, with noisy flight patterns and fluctuating wintering behavior. Swifts gather in large flocks, pour like water into chimneys, rest briefly, then depart. They migrate to the southern shore in October and return in April as insects decline.
