Observation details
Definitely nighthawk based on long pointed wings with white/light bands near tips and characteristic swooping flight. It appeared flying near the aplomado nest box, flew around for maybe 30 seconds and then went to ground in the grass. Did not get a good enough view to guess lesser vs. common. Worst picture in the history of eBird to come.
