Laura and I took libations out to the deck not long ago, and were
tickled to see eight common nighthawks dashing around. Naturally, they
were headed *south*, as they always seem to aim hereabouts. Even a few
are nice these days; I recall recording "The highest twilight counts of
fall movements usually come from late August-early September, and
include a description of circle-soaring by 'at least several thousand'
over the OSU campus 9/3/1968 (Mueller 1970), 3000+ on 9/3/1976 (Thomson
1983:206), and 2500 on 9/3/1992 (OC 16(1):21).'
Sic transit chordeiles,
Bill Whan
