[TN-Bird] Common NIghthawk

Birders,

This morning I had my first of this year Common Nighthawk flying 
overhead.  Last year, I had the good luck of observing hundreds of 
nighthawks flying in circles, I am hoping for it happen again.  Its a 
spectacular sight.


(This is slightly off topic)
On another note, when biking on otter creek road (Radnor Lake, Davidson 
county, Nashville, TN) towards franklin road, I noticed heavy 
construction in progress.  These people have taken over a significant 
portion of wildlife habitat.  Not only that, they leave a lot of dirt on 
the road which is a clear hazard for motorists and bicyclists.  Its very 
sad that this is happening so close to the state park.  I couldn't help 
writing about this.
