Nesting and Nest Visitors of the Vauxs Swift in Montana
Baldwin PH and Hunter WF. 1963. Nesting and Nest Visitors of the Vauxs Swift in Montana. The Auk. 80(1):81-85
Includes sighting of Vaux's swift along Avalanche Creek, Glacier National Park. From introductory paragraph: "Information concerning the status of the Vaux's Swift (Chaetura vauxi vauxi) in Montana has heretofore been incomplete (A. 0. U. Check-list, 1957: 298). The discovery of a nest at Yellow Bay on the Flathead Lake on 16 July 1961 establishes this swift definitely as a breeding species. This easternmost nesting record for the race defines the tip of an eastward tongue of its breeding range extending from Washington into northwestern Montana nearly to the continental divide."
