Since there have been so many Nighthawks reported this year and so much
interest, here's a website with a lot of details about them you probably
don't know:
http://birding.about.com/od/birdprofiles/p/Common-Nighthawk.htm
And here are some pictures you can compare those details against. Not
everything can be seen here, but several of the features of the males are
visible. I looked through all my pictures and I can't find a single female,
based on this article. Maybe the males migrate first. Or last.
