Media notes
Insane nightjar orchestra! At least 7 individuals calling in this recording. Time 18:40.
Observation details
First bird started at 1840. Within a minute 4-5 calling at once. In a couple more minutes, the entire outcrop area we were in was just one big open-air orchestra of Indian Nightjars (at least 7, couldn't make sense of counts beyond that), with faraway Jerdon's as the guest appearance. Interesting how they've all shifted here, from the small trail closer to the entrance where we'd seen them in early winter. Nevertheless, in the latter area, we still saw/heard two more on our way back. This is a conservative total.
