"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style=3D"margin-top: 0px; margin-right:
On each of the last two nights I have heard a Common Nighthawk calling at my parents' place in Bedford.  Last night it was calling at 10:40 p.m., which seemed pretty late for a bird which I think of as crepuscular, i.e. active at twilight.  Mind you, the moon was full last night.

Are Nighthawks more active/vocal on moonlit nights?
