Dwight, Summer Birds of 
Prince EJdward Island., 
Chaetura pelagica. Chimney Swift. — Rather rare, and not often 
seen. In a country where a majority of the houses have but one 
chimney, and that chimney in use from one year’s end to another’s, it is 
not lemarkable that the Chimney Swift still nests in its primitive manner 
in hollow trees, but it is remarkable how soon it takes kindly to civiliza- 
tion when this has advanced to the point of building houses with a spare- 
room chimney.
