Observation details
I thought I saw this species two nights ago, but didn’t get the best look and doubted myself seeing that it seemed more like Spotted Nightjar country. However, tonight it hawked right in front of my face, grabbing insects attracted by the headlight. There were no white patches in the wings or tail. I photographed a second individual about 2 km further up the road. Neither called.
