Northern Parula Hanging Around/Fort Collins

[Rob Sparks]

As I was birding to work on my bike I heard the Northern Parula singing in some european poplar trees at the same place I had it on Sunday (05/19).

Here is a link to the location if anyone wants to try and refind it,

I also saw a pair of Chimney Swifts chasing each other and then they seemed to locked toes and started to fall to the ground but seperated before hitting the ground and flew off.  Has anyone seen this behavior before with swifts?

Other migrants seen Blue-gray Gnatchacher, Black-headed Grosbeak (call note), Lazuli Bunting (singing), Dusky Flycatcher, Orange-crowned Warbler, Wilson's Warbler, Gray Catbird.
