It is realy a kind of "branching" and I like to watch all their acrobatics :D
It started raining this afternoon. Can hear those drops fall.
Even a different sound to the other "droppings" ;)

from yesterday
Image
with a parent
Image
and today, some times out of view high up
Image
settling for the night, still raining

For how long will we see and hear them?
Do they come back after 1th fledge ?
Are they roosting here till migration?
Can't find it in my books :?

What I like is that they have some rest all close together after this,
each time again 8-)
I think, for now, no one left the chimney yet, but they go high up for sure :)

I found this info Tine...
Roosting info from the Cornell pagesite...

At the end of the nesting season, lots of birds will congregate in a single chimney.
They roost together in preparation for migration. There may be over 10,000 birds in a single roosting colony.

3 babes (I think!)

Long time just one there and now two again.
See how many for the night will be back ;)
