I had never seen Com Nighthawks anywhere near my neighborhood in suburban Denver City/County, but this year I had one, about 2 weeks ago, right in front of my house, giving its diagnostic "Meer!" call. Indeed, many of the birds have changed up a bit with this year's unusual weather during Spring migration. Extra Goldfinches, extra Tanagers, a female "russet-backed" Swainson's Thrush in my yard for 3 days, a Lazuli Bunting in my yard for 3 days, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher in the yard... many firsts came out of this year's weather.
Speaking of nighthawks....
I was birding near Crow Valley with my son last week. A few nighthawks we’re flying, we saw 2 still snoozing in trees and on a post, even just an hour before sunset. We were hunting for a visual of some singing bird and once we found it, a mockingbird, we were watching it go through it’s reper when a nighthawk flew over and called. The mockingbird immediately imitated it for a couple seconds and then moved on to its next song! To immediately switch from one song to a nighthawk call! It was one of those unbelievable moments when I marveled at the design by the Creator.
