(delhibirdpix) Indian Nightjar 2 (Caprimulgus asiaticus)

So when I got to know that my previous nightjar was a Savanna and not Indian, I thought it would be a pity if I returned home for the summer without capturing on camera the nightjar whose calls I had actually been hearing.

So last evening, after a lot of careful searching around - I finally got to see one confidently camouflaged a few meters away from me.

Here's an image of one with the flash on.

Cheers!
