Hello Everyone,
While jeeping around southern Utah over this past weekend, I saw my
first Common Poorwill. We were driving along the Colorado River at dusk
just a tad north of Moab when a hapless Poorwill spooked up from the side
of the road and terminally pancaked itself against our windshied. It was
a perfect textbook speciman, most likely from this year's hatch from the
freshness of the plumage, a beautiful bird. Bummer way to see one!
Otherwise cheers to all, me2
