Fluidr / Tough Light (Common Nighthawk) by The Owl Man

Here is another photo of one of the nighthawks that was flying in our neighborhood last night. A bit harsh because of the light but probably the best bug shot of the evening.
Night hawks are a type of Nightjar similar to Whip-poor-wills. They spend most of their life on the wing traveling or feeding on insects.
