Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Nighthawk perched in Sapsucker Woods, Sunday 9/16

[Jay McGowan]

Interestingly, the (presumably same) COMMON NIGHTHAWK is back roosting
above the base of the Sherwood Platform on the Wilson Trail North at
Sapsucker Woods this morning, just one branch back from where it was on
Sunday.

[Diane Morton]

Thanks, Mark!  Nighthawk is still there at 11:30 am - perched in the tree
that you described.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Nighthawk in Collegetown?

[Geo Kloppel]

Hi Tom,

Very likely. The sound of Nighthawks over collegetown (and downtown Ithaca) is 
a fond memory of summer from the sixties and seventies, when they still bred 
here.  

Migrants seem to linger here for a few days, just long enough to make me wonder 
if they might take it up again some year.

-Geo

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Nighthawk

[Geo Kloppel]

Yes. The date is perfect, any hour is possible, and the east hill location 
seems natural to me - I will forever associate Nighthawks with the skies over 
collegetown, 45 years ago when they still bred in Ithaca.

Probably a number of birders will be staking out the city this evening, 
watching the parks, the flood control channel, etc.

 Yesterday morning around 9:00, as we were driving down State Street just 
 after turning off Mitchell St., Sara Jane and I had two birds fly over us 
 from right to left, which looked very much like COMMON NIGHTHAWK.  We only 
 got a very brief look as they passed about 50' above the apartments being 
 built on the left side of the road and disappeared (and we couldn't stop).  
 They had long, pointed wings and slender bodies.  Although only seen for a 
 very few seconds, we saw them make the jerky, bobbing movements that we 
 associate with this species.  Would they be here now, and would they be 
 flying at that time of the morning?

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Common Nighthawk

[John and Fritzie Blizzard]

When we lived in Ith. '61-'71 we always enjoyed seeing   hearing nighthawks 
over Montgomery Ward  other stores, incl. JC Penney at what is now the west 
end of  the Commons. We weren't often downtown at night between '71  '91 
when we lived in Dryden nor have we been downtown at night except a very few 
times since coming to Union Springs in '91.


We saw several nighthawks along Bundy Rd. in the daytime about 2002, a 
surprise to me at the time. I don't recall the time of the yr. but it could 
have been spring since we often went out to look at spring flowers. At that 
time I didn't consider myself a birder ... just an observer.


Fritzie

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Common Nighthawk, Stewart Park

[Dave Nutter]

This evening Stuart Krasnoff, Gary Kohlenberg, and I spontaneously gathered by the Cascadilla Boathouse in Stewart Park at about 8:15pm. Around 8:30 Gary was the first to pick out a single COMMON NIGHTHAWK working its way north over Cayuga Inlet or Jetty Woods. It foraged over the vicinity of the lakeshore of Treman Marine Park for a minute or so before we lost it against West Hill, apparently headed north again.While not seeing any more nighthawks we amused ourselves by looking at the crescent of Venus through Stuart's scope.--Dave NutterOn May 18, 2012, at 10:06 AM, Jay McGowan jw...@cornell.edu wrote:Brad Walker, Livia Santana, Matt Medler, Emma Grieg, and I had a COMMON NIGHTHAWK at Stewart Park last night around dusk (8:20?). Brad first spotted it over Jetty Woods, and it eventually flew right over our heads on the shore of Stewart Park and headed up towards Ithaca Heights.
