Well, it's not. After school this afternoon, I saw a small flock of waxwings. But that's not the reason for this post: swarming nighthawks. I remember seeing this last spring, then it was preceded by a buildup in the number roosting out front. Well, as soon as I got outside, one was flying low, the bulk of the group 50 feet up. I counted 16. So fun to watch. Wonder where they're headed? -- Elliott Gordon AF5HH NW Austin Edit your Freelists account settings for TEXBIRDS at //www.freelists.org/list/texbirds Reposting of traffic from TEXBIRDS is prohibited without seeking permission from the List Owner
