Sept. 11, 2011: Found myself sitting on a dove field in Morgan County between 5:00 and 7:00 pm this evening. There were not many doves flying but the nighthawks provided a beautiful and continuous migratory display during those 2 hours. I stopped counting at 140 birds over the small patch of sky that was visible. There were definitely more than that but I had to look down and pet the dog occasionally.
