On Sept. 13, 13 Burton Middlefield Rotarians and four guests enjoyed a cookout at Oberland Park in Newbury to hear Eagle Scout Alex tell the group about his Eagle Scout Project of building a chimney swift nesting lodge built on the park property.
He reported that birds have nested there since before he actually completed the project.
The birds have migrated south for the winter already so are not currently occupying the structure but will return in the spring. Chef Jeff Pascoe handled the cooking for the evening meal.
