[TN-Bird] Common Nighthawk, Smyrna, Rutherford Co.

  • From: Scott Somershoe <ssomershoe@xxxxxxxxx>

Just had my first common nighthawk of the year. I spent a lot of time
in the yard last night and didn't hear or see any. Saw my first one
just now. They arrived back to my neighborhood on 29 Apr last year.

Good birding,
Scott Somershoe
