Hi, Tweets,

Yesterday after sunset, I finally saw a Common Nighthawk in King County, one flying over the south meadow at Discovery Park. There are still mixed flocks in the uplands, with added Swainson's and Hermit Thrushes and more sparrow species lately. I had one immature Chipping Sparrow.

This morning, I included West Point in my visit, and saw two Parasitic Jaegers, harassing Caspian Terns who fought back, a Common Loon, and a Peregrine Falcon. Again, warblers and flycatchers and sparrows are in the uplands. At least one of the hummingbirds was a Rufous.
