Casual records. — ^With a range that covers most of the Western 

 Hemisphere, it is not surprising that comparatively few nighthawks 

 should be recorded beyond the known normal limits. A specimen 

 was taken by an Eskimo at Allakaket, on the Koyukuk River in 

 northern Alaska, late in September or early in October 1923. One 

 was seen at Grand Falls, Labrador, on May 31, 1895, and a specimen 

 was collected at Makkovik in June 1929. The species is a fairly 

 regidar visitor at Bermuda during migration, sometimes being very 

 common.
