Last night on the way up the track I noticed something on the ground and thought it might be a nightjar as I have seen them in this area previously, but not had a chance to get a photo. Unfortunately the phone I had with me does not have a great camera but decided to see if I could get a shot just for the record.
As you can see a poor photo but enough to identify the bird as a White-throated Nightjar, one of the four nightjar species found in Australia. The White-throated Nightjar ranges from the tip of Cape York in Queensland along the dividing range and east coast through to southern Victoria.
