I was waiting at the Campus road Bus stop behind BTI for a delayed Rt 50, when I saw bird heading north, first impression was a falcon, but then it started floating in typical nigthhawk manner, as it came closer I could see it clearly without binoculars. It lazily (as nighthawks could be) headed north over Fall Creek! In the afternoon there were a few TV's floating in the sky.
Today afternoon in the back BTI lot, I saw a Common Buckeye flitting around. Also watched a migrant Black-saddlebag! ooh sad, I am going to miss the fall migration it looks like :-( Happy fall birding everyone!
