    Extremely well camouflaged bird.
    I always wonder how people can find any of these nightjar birds.
    Great finding and a nice image, Alan.

    Looks like you could step on one without ever knowing about it! I love the dry leaves all around it, very cool, but what is even better are the fresh vegetation bits growing through.
