Can any birder/twitcher in the village confirm that I could have heard a nightjar(s) near Parwich, approx. a week ago in near-dark.
I once heard a nightjar here several years ago in very early September (migrating south?) with an unmistakably clear and distinctive trill followed by wing-clapping.
This time the ‘song’ was much less distinctive and without the wing-clapping. Are these birds around every late-Spring & Summer and have I simply missed them?
