VARIABLE DATE
Join COS for a nocturnal twist on the classic hawk watch, our first ever Nighthawk Watch! In late August, when the winds are right, Common Nighthawks move in mighty flocks across the twilight sky. This dramatic display can be difficult to anticipate and is too often overlooked. So bring your lawn chair, picnic blanket, snacks, and other stakeout favorites as we try to observe a spectacle marking the beginning of fall migration.
Because nighthawk migration is so dependent on weather conditions, we are selecting three dates to hold. As we approach the dates, we’ll monitor weather patterns. Depending on if the conditions are conducive to nighthawk flights, we will make a call to go or not between 12 and 24hrs in advance.
All ages and experience levels are welcome.
Mark your calendar for the following dates at 7:30pm: August 29, August 31, and September 2
