Where to see a Common Nighthawk in Virginia

The Common Nighthawk is regularly recorded in the counties of 13 Virginia state parks (eBird historical checklists). The strongest bets:

  1. Kiptopeke State Park
  2. Lake Anna State Park
  3. Moore's Creek State Forest
  4. Mason Neck State Park
  5. Paul State Forest
  6. Biscuit Run State Park
  7. James River State Park
  8. Sky Meadows State Park
  9. Wilderness Road State Park
  10. Whitney State Forest
  11. First Landing State Park
  12. False Cape State Park
  13. Leesylvania State Park

These are county-level records โ€” the species is documented in the area around each park, which is a strong steer rather than a guarantee for the park itself.
