It's possible for birds to accidentally end up in your chimney even if they are not chimney swifts. But chimney swifts are a specific species of bird that takes up residence in chimneys because they are drawn to the warmth coming from the chimney. They also don't rest, they vertically attach themselves to the walls of the chimney when they need a break.
Chimney swifts aren't like other animals that may end up in your chimney. They are actually very helpful because they eat bugs and insects that could end up building homes in your chimney. They even eat spiders.
