One year (may be about 10 years ago), I saw hundreds of Nighthawks flying in a
group over Varna as I was driving by. I just have the picture in my brain where
I saw lots of them flying lazily in a typical nighthawk fashion but can’t
recollect exact number. May be 300+. That was a neat
I also have a recollection of seeing hundreds of Common Nighthawks in
migration; although, this was along the Interstate 684 corridor during fall of
1996. It was during the evening in either late August or the very first few
days of September. This was near Katonah, NY. It was memorable to me,
Just now four shorebirds flew from front of my window, I think they were
Yellowlegs! They were heading from west to east.
