Aidan B Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 One of the nighthawks, I'm not sure if it's a Lesser or Common. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Cochrane Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Do you have a shot showing the primaries better? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLecy Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 I'd say Lesser based on location and the fact that it has some large round spots on the wing coverts (I realize this feature has to be used with extreme caution). Photos of the primaries would be very helpful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Leukering Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 I think that COPO can be ruled out by the perch location. At least, I’ve never seen one in a tree. Unfortunately, there’s a branch in exactly the wrong spot to determine the placement of the primaries patch relative to the tertials. https://cobirds.org/Publications/ColoradoBirds/InTheScope/67.pdf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
