A trio of *Common Nighthawks* fed over my Centennial neighborhood in Arapahoe County for about 20 minutes on September 2, before cutting south (flying over my house, right as I returned to it with my dogs from the walk on which we first saw the bullbats). The visiting *Mountain Chickadee* has made sporadic visits to my yard in September. Today, I had a *Wilson's Warbler* and a *MacGillivray's* *Warbler*. This is my first time seeing the latter in my yard since 2017, when one spent most of May calling and singing in my suburban yard.
