[Maine-birds] C. Nighthawks, Union, 8.27.17

Two days late, sorry--seeing a nighthawk post on the NH list-serv reminded me that on Sunday at about 6 pm I saw 6-10 Common Nighthawks flitting their way over Union. Always love to see them as they're migrating south like that, even if it means that summer is almost over.

Also of potential interest at Crawford Pond in Union that day: pr of Broad-winged Hawks, small raft of 5 Common Loons, and a flock of songbirds--including both nuthatches, Yellow-rumped Warblers, and Cedar Waxwings--fly-catching amid a huge swarm of flying ants.
