Shining a Light on Nighthawk Migration
May 15 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Join the HMANA (Hawk Migration Association of North America) for their Lunch-n-Learn about nighthawk migration.
The ground-nesting Common Nighthawk is one of North America’s most widely distributed bird species and yet it remains one of the least understood, thanks in part to its nocturnal habits. Unfortunately, the Common Nighthawk is also declining across much of its range, with many causes potentially available for the decline of this long-distance migrant. We’ll discuss how emerging research from across the annual cycle and community science are providing first steps towards the conservation of this enigmatic species.
*** Registration is required. *** For those not able to join via Zoom, we will livestream the program on the HMANA Facebook page as well. Must be watched live.
