Abstract

A chimney swift, or Chaetura pelagica, lies side by side with a white-collared swift with a nickel for size reference. The comparison captures how much bigger the white-collared swift is than the chimney swift. A tag in the photo says the chimney swift was found in Bethania in Forsyth County, North Carolina, on May 2, 1960.
