Happy to see a common nighthawk this afternoon, flying about a field in Northwest Park, Austin, Texas. This is the first one I've seen for the summer season. They winter in South America. This nighthawk was a fabulous flyer, fast and beautifully agile.

In researching where they migrate from, I found there are bands, stealthfighters, and pistols called Nighthawks. I know there's a restaurant here in town called The Nighthawk. I'd forgotten that the famous 1942 diner painting by Edward Hopper is called 'Nighthawks'.
