Title: Nighthawks at High Park
Post by: robgilroy on August 12, 2008, 08:46:11 PM

Right on schedule, the nighthawks have returned to High Park. About two dozen, along with dozens of swifts, were gathered in a feeding frenzy just before dusk, near the baseball diamonds.

Went to the park with the kids to check out the Nighthawks and play at the castle playground.  Saw a Kingfisher, Great Blue Heron and Wood Ducks in the northernmost duck pond, and some Barn Swallows, Swifts and Nighthawks near Grenadier Restaurant; plus all the usuals.  Nice place to bring kids for an intro to birding.
