Siesta Time

I love discovering a sleeping Nighthawk hunkered down during the heat of the day in a shady spot. Their cryptic colouration is so perfect, just a feathered rock snoozing away!

Quiet Please

At this time of year our evenings are filled with the delightful calls of Lesser Nighthawks and often we see them swooping across the skies at twilight. But were do they go during the day? They rely on their amazingly cryptic colouration to hide in plain sight either amongst rocks on the ground or blended perfectly with the bark of a branch. So beautiful to see this special bird hiding out during the day.
