Subject: [Tweeters] Nighthawk in West Seattle

Over the past 12 years, about once in 3 or 4 years I hear and see a
Nighthawk passing through West Seattle during their last of the spring
season migration. Last night I was pleased to hear and see one of
these historic Seattle birds buzzing and twisting in flight (above
California Av SW and SW Findlay St.) Do people remember the
Nighthawks on summer nights at Greenlake decades ago? What were the
factors that caused them to disappear from Seattle as breeding birds?
(I know we had this discussion some years ago.)
