I have seen a few Common Nighthawks around town the last few
weeks in 'unexpected' spots and around billboards at night
but had my first real movement of the season on Sunday night
(26 August) around 7PM as I pulled back into our neighborhood
after returning from Kingston Steam Plant.  A large flock of
about 40 birds was canvasing the neighborhood.  A few singles
continued to trickle through the rest of the evening until
it was too dark to see.
