Status of the chimney swift (Chaetura pelagica) in Canada / Jean Gauthier ... [et al.].: CW69-5/477E-PDF

"The Chimney Swift (Chaetura pelagica) is an aerial insectivorous bird that forages exclusively on the wing. The species is part of the long distance neotropical migrant’s group. The breeding range of the Chimney Swift is largely limited to eastern North America below the 49th parallel. Approximately 26% of the species’ breeding range is in Canada. The Chimney Swift winters mainly in the upper Amazon River drainage basin in South America, however, very little information on this subject is available"--Abstract, p. vii.
