This time of year, when chimney swifts impress us with their evening
gyrations, often brings to mind the work of Ralph Dexter, a scientist at
Kent State University, whose work over many years on the chimney swift
has informed us all. A search for  "kent state university chimney swift"
will lead to innumerable pronouncements from the University's legal
offices about the sanctity of their various logos, but you can find a
representation in the list. Actually, it is more convenient to search a
web site about swifts at        http://www.wiswifts.org/  , from a scientist
who learned about swifts in Cleveland.
        Look for one of Dexter's articles from the Ohio Journal of Science at
