- **Event Description**: Join us at the top of Washington Tower for a Nighthawk watch!About this EventThe fall migration of the Common Nighthawk is a predictable and visible phenomenon and the top of Washington Tower is the perfect place to view it. Despite the name, Nighthawks are a member of the nightjar family and in late August, early September can be spotted on the horizon or overhead migrating south or wheeling around at dusk catching insects when they pause along their migration route to fuel up. In addition to searching for Nighthawks we will be on the lookout for raptors, songbirds, chimney swifts and even bats after sunset. Led by Brian Rusnica, President, Eastern Mass Hawk Watch.We’ll meet at Asa Gray Garden (Lawn Avenue Circle) and caravan to Washington Tower. Bring Binoculars and a flashlight.
