David,
I would estimate that nighthawk populations are down by 70-80% from 
what they were just 20-25 years ago.  That covers local breeders and
migrants.

 The May/June 2013 issue of Birding  discusses Common Nighthawk population 
declines,  which are described as drastic.  Anyone else notice a decline 
locally or miss them in a usual spot?
