Tonight Patrice Domeischel, Luci Betti-Nash, and I saw 26 common nighthawks at the stone bridge overlook tonight. Most were flying east to west and a few from south to north. Interestingly, all were higher up, moving with purpose and did not appear to be feeding; none came down over the pond as they so often do.
Had many thousands of grackles and starlings flying as they have been recently, from southeast to the northwest.
