Subject: [BIRDWG01] Lesser Nighthawk invasion?

Some of you may recall that I recently forwarded a link to photos taken by
Mike Yip of British Columbia's first Lesser Nighthawk. That bird was
photographed 50 miles off Vancouver Island on June 5th. Furthermore, I see
that other Lesser Nighthawk reports continue in Pacific states
lately...well, hot on the heels of BC's first (and only Canada's second), we
appear to have our second record in a month.
Today (June 30) at Iona Island Regional Park in Richmond (Vancouver),
British Columbia, Ilya Povalyaev found a freshly dead nighthawk and I am
hosting photos taken by Peter Candido on my photo website:

Any comments appreciated.
