Tonight we had an amazing show, with two flocks of Common Nighthawks cruising the airspace low over our roof deck.  Unlike last night, when 19 nighthawks were observed making a beeline south, tonight's birds stuck around for at least 15 minutes.  Our high count was 25 nighthawks, many of which were at eye level or just above our heads.  A great treat!

Peent!
