Dear All,
On Monday I saw what appears to have been a Pauraque-type nightjar migrating in the daytime by using thermals...:
I'd appreciate any thoughts on the ID if anyone has a better alternative than Pauraque, and also feedback about nightjar migration tactics, documented examples of this kind of event, etc.
Just for fun, look at this page and compare it to the bird above - thank goodness the tail is too long on the Texas nightjar!:
Cheers,
Martin
