Hello Everyone I was closing the park tonight and saw several nightjars sitting on the road. I was able to get a really good look at one of these birds, which was obliging enough to show it’s tail feathers in flight, and was clearly a Chuck-will’s-Widow. Most of these birds were sitting on the road to the Tip, just at the entrance to Sparrow Field. I was driving this section of the road around 9:15 pm. May be worth an evening walk tomorrow night.
