Hello, While out walking a block north of the Super America in Cohasset, MN, at 8:00pm this evening (March 29, 2007), I heard the distinct "weer" sound of a Common Nighthawk. The light rain didn't seem to bother the bird. I heard the call 2 times before the bird left the area. After consulting Robert Janssen's "Birds in Minnesota", I found this to be a very early record for northern Minnesota.
Happy birding, Tim Blackwood Timothy J.
