Creator Transcript
  • White throated Swift June 24, 1936. Okanagan Falls. BC. [British Columbia] 10 + pairs in cliff at falls, 20 +/- pairs in cliff at head of Vasseaux on E [East] side. 6-pairs on cliff on W. [West] side of Vasseaux, others on all suitable cliffs When two were chasing each other in flight I frequently saw the front one lift its wings straight over its back + travel perhaps 3 or 4 seconds in that position. Nests all high up on cliff face, all in crevices entered from below. There characteristic chattering call goes on from dawn till dusk. Only once did I see a swift come down to the lake shore + hover over the water.
