I notice that these nighthawks are in the newspaper today. The article says
that although nighthawks are native to Virginia, these were most likely
migrating from the northeastern states to the tropics.
I used to see nighthawks a lot in Rochester, New York, when I was a
teenager, in the early 1960s. They would fly around in circles, making a
"beeerrp" noise, and dive down every once in a while for some prey.

There were about 20 Common Nighthawks at last night's Brave's game. They
were flying around the lights, and one even dived after a pop-fly ball. The
birds were more exciting than the game against the Charlotte Knights.
