Just as it takes a village to raise a child, it sometimes takes a “village” of rehabbers to save threatened wildlife. For the next two and a half weeks Sue continued to raise them, along with four other swifts she had in care. Timing is everything when it comes to releasing Chimney Swifts.

The lodge is unusual in having a raised walkway behind the lodge, allowing those of us keen to bird or watch wildlife when most normal people are resting in the middle of the day.

Presumably, the species also not only eats fruit but also mammals and possibly birds –the HBW specifically mentions the species catching bats emerging from caves at dusk, and feeding them to juveniles. The Black Hornbill is listed as Vulnerable, a change for the worse from the previous listing as Near Threatened.
