Antillean Nighthawk - 27Jul2019
A trip to the Florida Keys is a must if you want to pick up the Antillean Nighthawk for your ABA list. I actually ended up going before my Colombia trip to try for a different Antillean bird, the Swift. I did however miss that one but the Antillean Nighthawk was a good consolation. The call of the Antillean is very different from a Common Nighthawk so it wasn't hard to pick them out. The checklist with audio is here: https://ebird.org/checklist/S58503746
Little did I know one would show up on the outerbanks of NC a year later. Of course I had to chase that one and here is the pic and the link to the audio of the bird which was mixed in with Common Nighthawks. https://ebird.org/checklist/S72451859
