I shot them, back in 2017, doing their thing. Much later on I decided to make a video using a burst of stills that I took. I aligned all of the images so that the chimney stayed still and the birds movement could be seen. There's also a single processed still as the second shot on my Instagram post:

Really an amazing thing to witness.
