Yesterday Matthew Wills spotted a Whip-poor-will roosting in Prospect
Park. The bird was in a Honeylocust tree next to Rick's Place. A bunch
of us watched it at the end of the day until about 8:15pm. It was a
great experience getting to observe this often heard-but-not-seen bird
waking up, preening, then taking off. Check out Matt's blog posting
