Since the 1980's Vaux's Swifts have roosted in the chimney of Chapman Elementary in NW Portland. During the month of September, the swifts gather here and are an incredible sight to see! About an hour before sunset, people gather to watch as the birds fly overhead as they prepare to spend the night in the chimney. This is a popular activity among many Portland residents! Join a group of Reedies for a laid back evening of watching the swifts! Transportation will be provided, and on the way home the group can stop for dinner at some food carts.
