life imitates art in Columbia, Sc



Hi C-Birders,

Caroline and I just got out of the first showing of "Winged Migration" in
Columbia. It's at the Nickelodeon through next Thursday. Great stuff. As we
left the theater at about 8:45 PM we had a nice view of Mars rising in the
east. But the best view was to the north. The Nickelodeon in only one block
south of the South Carolina State House, which is very well lit up at night.
Flying around the State House dome were at least 40 Common Nighthawks. This
is the largest nighthawk flock that I had ever seen in Columbia. So, great
movie, great birds, and a look at Mars. What more do you want?
