Title: Nighthawks and swifts, High Park
Post by: mr.sharp-photo on August 31, 2014, 02:58:42 PM

I was in High Park for a picnic thingy yesterday evening and had quite a show.
An hour before sunset, I heard a few MEEEEEEEPs! coming from the field near us. Then, lots of swifts and nighthawks soared in the sky. The nighthawks were great. One chased a swift away. They were usually gathering in groups of 5 or 6 up high.
