A common sight in Kansas, where we are from. They are fun to watch, and so cool to see them dive to the point of making, what I call "thunder". I would love to see them again! Madonna Stallmann On Tue, Aug 24, 2021, 8:41 PM Robyn Bailey wrote: > I saw 3 Common Nighthawks flying over the ball

I saw 3 Common Nighthawks flying over the ball fields at Groton Ave Park tonight at dusk (8:10pm). I’m often at this park but haven’t seen them here before. Robyn Bailey -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME

[cayugabirds-l] Common nighthawks at Jennings Pond

2021-05-31 Thread Kevin C Packard
Hi everyone, For those who are interested, if you come to Jennings Pond (in Danby) in the evening you should be able to see nighthawks zooming about. I was just there (around 9pm) and had a real nice show, seeing three nighthawks swooping around back and forth over the pond's surface. By

I missed Jeremey’s alert about the Nighthawks for about an hour, so I went to Stewart Park. After about an hour I saw one, possibly two, flying around and calling. Good Birding, Ann Sent from my iPhone -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME

This evening I was walking my dog towards the east end of Mt. Pleasant rd. On our way back, at the top of the hill I noticed 2 birds, very erratic flight over the alfalfa field on the north side. They had very pointed wings and were hawking insects. They were fairly high and stayed over the

Hi all, I was listening to the radio program 'wait wait don't tell me' while I was roasting whole wet peanuts on the stove. So in between I just looked out of my front door. Between a meter gap of two massive Norway maples, I had glimpses of a bird some 500 ft away in the skyline flying

This evening I was strolling the Fall Creek neighborhood of Ithaca with my son. My goal was to see Common Nighthawks. His goal was to pleasantly kill time while his laundry dried. The playground at the Fall Creek Elementary School seemed a good spot, with plenty of sky, plus equipment sturdy

I was at Stewart Park the same time Dave was across the inlet. I saw two Nighthawks over the golf course that flew south. My suspicion was they picked up from Renwick Woods to continue their journey, but reading Dave's post makes me think they spent some time feeding the flats as my sighting

This evening between 7 and 7:21pm from the Cayuga Waterfront Trail in Cass Park I saw at least 3 and possibly as many as 6 COMMON NIGHTHAWKS. The first which I saw, only a few minutes after I began my quest, was distant to my east over the flats of Ithaca. Surprisingly, it was flying directly

About 45 min ago, we had a group of 5 COMMON NIGHTHAWKs appear over our neighborhood (W Meadow Dr Lansing). I first saw only 4 as I had just turned around from spotting some Cedar Waxwing flyovers, so only got the new group disappearing behind trees, but a good enough view of the white wing
