Bird flying in sky with grey background behind it.
Just before sunset during the month of September, thousands of Vaux’s Swifts come to roose at Chapman Elementary School in NW Portland. You’ll get to sip on a hot drink as you watch their incredible arial acrobatics, as the small fast-flying birds swoop and dive in a spectacular dance.
